Rear axle/torque tube stand
Has anyone ever seen one for sale? Saw this at the Early Ford Foundation Museum.

Re: Rear axle/torque tube stand
Every once in a while you'll see one for sale. I'd love to go back and trace what happened to all these specialty tools. I'd have to assume, as time went on, many of them got scrapped since they were deemed obsolete.

Re: Rear axle/torque tube stand
Am I correct, that the torque tube was part of the car for assist-rearend stability during this period?
My parent's '1950 did not have a torque tube. (?) Was torque tube a Ford decision year to year? Thank You - Last edited by highbeams; 06-20-2024 at 09:49 PM. |

Re: Rear axle/torque tube stand
Torque tubes went away for Ford cars in 1949, I think trucks were a year or two earlier.
