Re: “Normal” model a temp I would think what the piston manufacture recommends when the piston is round, I bet it's closer too 180-190 degrees.. djm

Knowing Dan,..that is NOT an assortment, but the correct hardware for a 28-29 CCPU.. djm

Ya,..it looks like B & C....lol..no guns.. The photo on the right, I think is Douglas Fairbanks with a VE- 27,28..

No,...my car has the factory fix, the part that your looking for in the want adds. You need this, it's a BIG DEAL,...IF the "dog bone" falls out you will have NO brakes..! This was Ford's recall for the A's I believe.. Dudley

The top leaf, front AND rear, are beveled too fit the cross member correctly..! Something to think about..

Thank Dean,....well done..!

Well,..you KNOW I am.........lol

A Model A takes 7.25" push rod...okay. The reason that they are bent is the angle of the actuating lever is laying back, they NEED too lay toward the front of the car. With them angled straight up OR back the push rod is forced into the king pin at the top and bends the rod. That should tell...
