Well, guys, it's time to start on this winter's project. Want to change gear ratio in the '29 Tudor. Have never pulled the ring and pinion on a model A. I didn't think Les Andrew's book was very clear. What special tools (spring spreaders, gear pullers, etc.) do I need to round up before starting this job? I assume the car needs to be raised up high enough to drop to rearend and get a couple old men underneath. What horror stories can you guys tell us?
