Quick change rear end
 

Pacific in Australia makes a quick change for a Model A. Halibrand made a Halibrand 101 for a Model A. Was there anyone else that made a quick change for a Model A? If so what model or series or serial numbers are they.

Jones made a magnesium quick change for midgets that used Model A components. The change gears were the same as Halibrand's.

The pinion took a special nut that rode in a bearing, and that made the pinion "straddle-mounted" like the V-8s.

They weren't really "made" for the Model A. They were race car parts that were adaptable to any car. Manufactures generally cast theirs to accept the Ford V8 bells and axles since they were plentiful. The 101 was originally made for lighter midgets. It became the go to QC for the lower HP Model A instead of the V8 (201) model.

It's pricey by the time you get it on US soil. This is a better option for those that live here.
