    What books on the A for a newbie?

    I have a bunch... the Andrews book Ford A Mechanic Vol 1 is good, but not perfect. (especially the brake section that glosses over a few issues that you will always face if doing a complete job) Take pics & notes as you go! If it's bi-lateral, do one side at a time.

    31 rear roller track

    I'm sure someone always says make it "perfect", but are these really worn enough to justify (rivet) removal, welding, grinding etc. for this amount of wear? (I'm making all clevises etc tight)
