Re: Brake Shoe Orientation

My shoes are old relined Fords, they are 1940 rears, when they relined them they made the lining the same size on both front and rear shoes. Is this an issue?

Re: Source for 42-48 Emergency brake cable

The rear cable is the right length for my 32 hydraulic brake conversion. I think all models are the same.
Thanks

Source for 42-48 Emergency brake cable

I read some old threads that the reproduction cables have the wrong springs. Is anyone selling the correct cable now?
Thank you

Re: Removing broken ignition switch pin in a 32

Thank you 32Phil and glennpm. So far if the new pin fits when it gets here, I hope I can leave it together.

Re: Removing broken ignition switch pin in a 32

Does it need to come apart to drill it? The rest of the mechanism works really well so I would hate to cause more problems taking it all apart. I don’t have the new pin yet, I looked at the picture...

Removing broken ignition switch pin in a 32

Hi,
The ignition switch pin is broken off flush in my 32 column drop. Any tricks for removing it? The replacement looks knurled, but can it be removed by twisting, or does it need to be pulled...

Wishbone rubber

When I tighten up the lower cap I can see that the rubber distorts. Does the wishbone pivot inside the ball or does the rubber ball move?

Thank you

Re: 1932 k-member ball mount hole size?

Thank you, the hole holds the head of the bolt, has it pulled through or was that by design?

Torque tube bearing Race

Hi,
I cleaned up the NOS torque tube race I purchased and it has lots of pitting. My original has wear groves where the bearing cage rides. Which on is better to use or should I find a better one?...

Thanks
