Pulled into grocery store parking lot after dark this evening and a city police officer pulled in behind me to say, “ it is illegal to only have one tail light in NC”. He quoted G.S 20-129. I thought you were legal with original equipment? He was nice enough and said he was just letting me...

Ford Produced and stamped “Ford” Springs? I took my rear spring off and cleaned, ground smooth, re-arched and graphite painted and found one leaf was stamped three times “Ford”. Of course I’ve only done this twice so I’ve not looked at many individual leaves before. Is this fairly common and...

31 Tudor when you step on running board (either side) the car goes down with the weight and doesn’t come back up. I have removed the front spring and it had really consumed itself by no lubricant. The leaves had worn the leaf under to the point I am putting a re-arched and in much better...

Snyders lists the u bolts as forged and squared inside until February of 1930. What is the bolts like for 1931? Also does anyone here have any of these in good used condition, early or late?

I just purchased these from Snyders and noticed the slots don’t match exactly around the screw boss, should they or do I have the wrong parts? Also the rear rubber does not touch the glass unless it is slid out toward the glass. Could the inner metal it attaches to be adjusted toward the glass...

Does anyone know what the number of (rear) leafs/leaves is in a stock 1930 sport coupe rear spring set? Thanks

If someone has a nice 1931 Tudor with bad engine they’d like to sell instead of rebuild or change I am looking. I plan on putting a new burtz in one for longer range driving. Thanks

Going downhill while in overdrive is coming out of overdrive as engine brakes against it. Has anyone here experienced this? It seems like it’s not seating completely in gear just not sure if that’s the case. It is a r10, Looking for help, thanks.

Which is stronger, the early type with welded ends or the later stamped version? I’m of the opinion that the earlier one is stronger and less prone to crack. I need one and my 1930 could probably get away with either.( may build) (It won’t be judged). Does anyone have an extra they want to...

I’m in need of a rear spring for 1930 sport coupe. I changed the front and now the car is squatted in the back so I’ll assume the spring is worn out. I couldn’t find anyone to heat treat the old front and was lucky enough that someone on here directed me to a fellow in Connecticut, unfortunately...

Does anyone sell the anti rattle t rubber by itself? I’ve looked and can’t seem to find it?? My felt channels are ok so I dont need an entire kit, I guess you could just use a windshield wiper blade.

Does anyone know what color options were available for 1930 sport coupe top? I’d like to know all of the color options for the body and interior as well. Is there a resource to find this information? Thanks

Were the flywheel housing, bell housing and transmission all the same color as the engine? Black starting at clam shell? Thanks

Both sides had this welded to the top, doesn’t look to be a crack repair/bridge. Can anyone tell me why this has been done? Can’t get my head around it unless it’s to mask a sagging frame for better drive train alignment. Any other thoughts or ideas??

I was going to try a re-arch of my front springs but now believe I should just replace with new. Looks like snyders only has an import spring available at the moment, I know there was a recent thread asking the same thing but I can’t find it so I’ll ask again, where should I buy a front spring...

What do you guys think of the bushings offered at snyders with steel bushings and modern grease zerk? I know it’s not like original but I’m ok with that as long as they perform good. Opinions?

Do any of the parts suppliers have Black Friday or holiday sales on parts? I am in need of some more expensive parts and wondered if I should buy them or are prices solid year round??

I hope it’s ok to post this link,,,,,,? I know most of you are gurus and understand how a carburetor meters and mixes fuel with air. I’m sure some guys on here work with their minds and not their hands, or in my case, my back :( Here’s an interesting video that shows how a carburetor in...

Decided to put the B engine in instead of messing with an A engine that needs more than I’m ready to do at the moment. I took the pan off the B engine yesterday and inspected it and it seems much tighter than the A. I have a few questions and I have used the search function and it was helpful...
