The chrome on the grill is peeling bad but do not have the resources to re-chrome. Was thinking of either painting or clear coating (kind of like the rough/shiny look of it). I have half wire brushed for a before and after, any thoughts??? If I paint is there a suggested way to get the rest...

Trying to remove pinion on a heavy duty Timken axle. Is there a trick to removing the inner bearing???

Just opened up the Timken rear end, found that it was full of water(no liquid lube detected just crust). First thought it was scrap but took out the ring assembly and power washed it. Looks better than imagined but there is some pitting on the teeth and the bearings are stuck on each end...

Now I'm confused, I thought my 38 one ton had 14" drums but when I I measured the front it comes out 12" and 1.75 width shoes. I have not pulled apart the Timken rear end yet but the drums definitely look bigger. Any thoughts???

Starting to get nervous, can't find much info on a 1938 one ton rear end. I was about to pull off the cap to check condition and it sure feels like something's being supported by the cap. Anyone know about this kind of rear, I'm thinking of just closing and grease the Hell out of it.

Converted to 12 volt, just broke the bendix spring on the original 6 volt starter. I am looking at the Macs 12 volt starter so the I am not constantly replacing the spring. Any input is appreciated.

I am in need of a .010 rear main bearing, specifically a 68-6331-L. The block bore is 2.670 and the crank is 2.399. This is not the standard bearing most 38's use, already have a set of those that don't fit.

I'm starting to wonder if the "1938 original 221 one ton" is correct. The crank journals measure 2.4" but the bearings i bought to replace are way too thin though the internal measurement seems right. I measured the piston bore and came up with 3.187 which is close to a 39 Mercury. The outside...
