Ruth, the Torque tube, Radius Rods and Drive Shaft are shortened approximately 2 1/4"
(? Memory escapes me) when using a AA bell housing. The AA bell housing is approximately 2" SHORTER (front to rear)than a Model A bell housing. Brackets for the Brake and Clutch Pedal Shaft and the E-Brake lever must be fabricated. The clutch assembly is Model A. Throwout bearing is AA with a sleeve over it (made from A trans. throwout collar sleeve.) Clutch disk is from F150. Model A Gear Shift Lever is welded to the F150 lever.

I have never installed one using a Model A bell housing.
