In my family steam and rail was a big part. Here in the Bay Area my grandfather was an Engineer for Southern Pacific and in Marin my father was a welder for Northwestern Pacific. The pleasant memories as child sometimes return.....the Daylight, Cab In Front Malley and the Union Pacific Big Boy...

Does anyone know if there is a difference in the wishbone rubber ball dimensions between the early Ford and Lincoln ? Thanks

I have a '39 Lincoln Coupe and the wishbone ball (rubber bushing) didn't last too long. Possibly a cheaper version and couldn't take the small oil leaks from v12 or trans. Or maybe the ball diameter is different for the Lincoln ?? and I installed the wrong one !

Useing a Colombia in my 34 Ford I prepared for a 500 mile trip. I went from 90 to 140 weight thinking greater protection. Didn't work well, after 50 miles it froze and big disappointment. After analyzing problem and repairs I am now using Valvoline 75-90. It may also be important to note that I...

I could be wrong maybe those studs, bolts didn't go in transmission, but the adapter. Could be a bigger problem. Help please !!

It's possible the threads on stud or transmission are stripped. So to find out you turn and tighten nut. If stripped it must come out and there are various thread repair kits. If ok, Christmas came early ! Good Luck

I'm glad your business is there, I've been a customer, at times, through the years. Having restored 3 cars and listening to my wife's complaints about the mess in the process, I had to share the video with her and her comment was "you're one of them" Good goin' cdan34

I have a '39 Zephyr Coupe which now has around 100 mi on it after about a 13 yr build. I've noticed with dropped axel the steering rod slightly rubs the v12 pan. I don't want to lower steering arms and I've wanted to try some tie rod ends that have a lower by 1/2 inch or so 11/16x18 thread and...

I took out the steering box many years ago, found one in better condition and did rebuild it at the time. As I find now my prior adjustment was a bit too loose, I could have messed up with the thrust washer, so time for disassembly. I'm still puzzled by the sector shaft being a bit higher than...

In trying to take the slack out in my steering. I've run into a problem, the steering box adjustment screw is not going down to the position it was when I took it off to clean threads on screw and lock nut. The sector shaft seems to be in a higher position, although the steering seems to work...

My Dad would jack up front and use a tape measure from front of one tire to the other. On the same tire tread measure front and back with one wheel stationary, on spinning wheel, mark runout and adjust accordingly for tow in. Seemed to work for me !

Hi Ken, This is what I did on my '34 Cab. Chuck

I've run a Columbia with 3.78 gears and Ford 9 inch axels. In two '34 Fords and in a '39 Zephyr which should be running this year. There was a small problem when starting out with this conversion but all has been well for 1000s of miles. All powered by 276 v8s and v12.

I'm not sure what we have here. Although what comes to mind is a single anti chatter rod maybe to attach to the cross member ?

My first car was a '34 Ford 5w in 1959. I've always enjoyed the 33, 34 Fords and for $200 powered by a good running Flat with 2 twos, this was a dream come true for a 15 yr. old. Chuck
