Re: Model A wishbone
Only for the earliest AA trucks. Later trucks and ALL after the October '29 Borg-Warner 4 speed were upgraded.
If you have an early axle, it is necessary to do a piece by piece comparison to be sure - its easy to be fooled. Joe K

Re: Model A wishbone
I believe the ball is the same. Parts list show the heavy duty wishbone AA-3405-B for 1930-31 AA trucks but don't show a corresponding AA version of A-3430 socket/ball receiver. So one assumes the engine/transmission/bell housing/ball receiver are the same. Joe K

Re: Model A wishbone
Thanks for the information. The current ball is not worn but is badly pitted. It is obvious this wishbone was out in the weather for a long time. At some point someone attempted to use the rubber ball socket but only used the bottom half!
Obviously there was at least 1 inch of play!. We are going to install an org. socket and a spacer hand hopefully will work. This AA is a nice truck with a Woods hydro. dump. Will be used mostly for parades and business promotion. |
