I have what i believe is the ring and pinion components of a Ruckstell 2 speed rearend.Plus the right and left differential housing parts. Please set me straight if iam off base. I have 2 of them and want to swap it for the rest of the parts to make a complete 2 speed rearend.I have a couple of the standard rearends, so i just need the remaining parts, I put this in the swap section of Fordbarn as well.

Maybe your housings are Ruxtell?? The left one will be larger in the middle & will have a hole for the shifter. The right side is a standard model T part. There are large drum & small drum versions as well. A picture will confirm this.
 
A Snyders catalog has a blowup of a Ruckstell rear axle. They also sell a repair manual and some of the repair parts.
I have not begun the repair of mine, so have no idea of the quality of parts available.
Someone else want to chime in here?
 
Except of the big bearing, all parts are made by Chaffin's. I am not aware of any problems with the parts they make. Retail price on the parts are about the same from which ever dealer you buy from. Mr. Chaffin wrote the repair book.

No. I was just dreaming and hoping I had something cool and rare. Iam new at this T stuff and learning daily. Thanks for your help, it certainly helped to have the spare parts when I was rebuilding the rearend.
