    1930-31 Hubcap tool

    The hub cap tool does work well, there is a learning curve. If I remember the directions were vague. Mine is slightly modified, I spaced it out with a piece of aluminum stock to make it work better. Lightly clamp it in a vice with a piece of rubber, the tabs need to be bent out at a 45° angle...

    Heater door placement in firewall for Otwell heater

    The original Otwell fits the fire wall profile a lot better. They come up on E-bay once in a while, worth the wait. The rolled up aluminum flat stock works well between the door and the manifold.

    power disconnect switch

    With the small amount thread you have on the switch you could mount it in the hole of the rear motor mount. You have to lift the hood to check oil anyway.

    A little tape on the bar of a 4- way lug wrench and a rubber bumper cut to fit inside the socket helps to keep it off the hub works well.

    Cabin Fan

    Don't drill any more holes, mine was a column mount. Get rid of the strap and run a round head 1/4-20 through the center hole in the dash panel.

    A little wood rot around screw holes

    Get out your pocket knife and whittle up some pre cut Maple or other hard wood sticks, tap in with a good wood glue, cut off and drill with a Vix-Bit or other centering drill. Larger or longer screws might not have the correct head.

    This way worked well for me, it will protect the fenders. I used the bumpers from my Tudor, split bumper works well with the license plate. If you want to tow something heavy you should probably do it with another truck
