I know that there is quite a difference between a 41 pickup frame & the 42 - 48 car frames. Yes I also know that I am going to have to fabricate my own mount. Whether that is to take your previous suggestion, make something totally different, or if I obtain a 42 - 48 mount & make some...

Yes I Do have a 41 pickup & yes it does have the stock mount as pictured above. I had to replace that mount for the stock transmission. Yes I also know what the 42 -52 pickup mount looks like as well as the 42-48 car torque tube mount looks like. However, I have the open drive pickup...

Didn't the 46 - 48 Ford cars use an 8" spacing as well - is it the same spacing side to side & front to back as the 42-52 pickups?

I have a 1941 Ford pickup under construction - right now it is just the cab mounted to the frame. I would like to put my rebuilt open drive transmission in it. I know the rear mount is 10" wide on the stock transmission & is 8" wide on my rebuilt open drive transmission. Has anyone performed...

Welcome, Jim - nice car! What kind of rear swaybar & shock setup did you use? Could you post some pictures if you have any, I have a 1941 basket case pickup under construction & I want to address that issue.

Thank you for the information!

How can I purchase Dan Brusegard's upper steering shaft bearing kit?

Wanted to buy: Mercury Flathead V8 oil pan to bell housing support or reinforcement bracket. This bracket bolts to the bottom of the oil pan to the bell housing.

I have checked the Mac's & Snyder's catalogs & it is not listed. My bracket does not have any letters listed after the A-1383. I don't have the Restoration Guidelines - would it be possible for someone to post a copy of this page or email it to me?

I have a Model A Rear Spare Tire Bracket Part # A-1383 - can anyone tell me what body styles & what year(s) of Model A's that this bracket will fit?

I have rebuilt column shift transmission that I put in my 1940 Ford Tudor. I pulled the rear axle to remove the trans - major pia. Anyway, in my haste of putting the rebuilt trans back in the car, I knocked the 2nd & 3rd lever in to gear turned the ujoint to line up the input shaft so that it...

I have a '30 Model A that has bolts threaded in from the back side of the front backing plates. It does not have the square stud type like it is supposed to have. The bolts are removeable. I had perfectly working front brakes, until they were loosened up to take the drums & hubs off to repack...

I have a 1940 Ford Tudor w/an 8BA flathead. This car has about 2500 miles on it since changing the motor. Before putting this engine in, I bought a new 10" clutch disc, new pressure plate, new throw out bearing, & I had my local machine shop resurface the flywheel. Now I have put around...

I have a brand new metallic clutch disc for the Model A Ford. This is a Velvetouch metallic disc manufactured by The S.K. Wellman Company based in Cleveland Ohio. Does anyone know anything about these? Any information would be appreciated.

Here is a little more input on the subject. While you can use a 35 - 40 car or pickup frame for your 41 pickup. There are differences in the earlier frames - it is not exactly an equal swap. I did this on my 41 pickup - I found a good earlier frame mine was of 37 or 38 vintage as it had the...
