It is funny how many different opinions on this. Look at the descriptions of the washers on all the different websites that sell them. They all say different things about them. Confusing at best but I have them on mine and always check the torque. I have use 64 ft lbs as a standard torque...

That I am learning, you guys are the best. Adding this one to my check list[emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks. Is he still around, have a website or anything like that?

I know my 29 has a Dave Wilton 4 speed OD but I cannot find any info on this man or his transmissions. Are they still around or do you know of a distributor? Would appreciate any info.

Thanks, all good stuff. As a mechanic, I have learned that the basics are always first. Again, all this was check because of the good posts on this forum. Rims are pretty true and I am satisfied with that. Had it on my alignment rack, and all is good. I have that luxury for alignments. We do a...

I really didn't say either, barnstuff made the statement. Now I did just get off the phone with Snyder's and talked to Joe in Tech support. Here is what he told me to do and explained the washers. First, they are not used on 29's but were used on later models wheel because of a shortage...

That is good info. I will look into it. I have read that is the right thing to do but I will look into new wheels today. Thanks

I need to brag just a bit. This is my very first trophy with this car. I got first place in Model A 28-31 class Closed top. I was also the second choice for next years Lead parade car. Got beat by a 1941 Hollywood Grahmn which was beautiful. I don't normally care about trophies but I have to...

I am in Hamilton and I am probably closer to Cincy. I’ll look it up thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Exactly Ernie. They use them today on a lot of vehicles to aid in a better ride.

I can but that was the first thing I checked. I might add this car has under 3000 miles since a complete resto. It was done right. Kingpins were just a small play but greasing took 98% of that out. Again I drove the car without a stabilizer and after fixing what I said, it did not shimmy. The...

Yes I should have stated that I check all the stuff that this forum talked about. All is in great shape. Yes the stabilizer takes that small "quiver" you get. I drove it 10 miles after doing all the work and to me "WOW" very smooth. I don't regret it.

Would love to do that, have to wait and see about trailering it up there.

Great comments and thanks. First of all "Yes" the steering box was checked and is fine. Second, remember what I wrote. "I understand it could mask a problem so to test that, unhook and drive it. Fix that issue and reinstall it. Maybe do this every 1000 miles and you'll be safe." So with that...

Ok, I have been reading a lot about wheel wobble, death shake, whatever you want to call it. I learned a lot from this forum just being new to Model A . So I was in our local Antique Car parade last Saturday ( Won the First place in my class) and during the parade, my "Wobble" became pretty...

Thanks for all your help and comments.

Thanks for the info, I will look at it. Yes, it is a Standard Coupe. Hamilton Ohio was a very industrial town back in the day. There was even a car company called the " Hamilton Motor Car Company". I have a historian friend that would be able to answer that about the wheels. Hamilton, Ohio...

I am updating the image. hope this can be seen better. Thanks for all the help.

Just above Cincinnati about 25 miles north. Sounds fun.
