I'm thinking there was one called the Gemsa, or something along that line.

Thanks

Herb

Jay has one (of course :-) ): http://www.mtfca.com/discus/messages/118802/123629.html
It was called "Gemco".

Is there anything for a Ford that Jay doesn't have? What an amassing resource, and willing to share it with us.

Just talked to Jack Putnam and he said the one he makes is not like the one I was referring to.

Maybe this picture helps? Fairly easy assembly.

The bronze thrust washer is sandwiched between the steel plates with hole to be fitted over the dowel pins in the housing. The Hyatt bearing is on the axle shaft, and fits into the Hyatt sleeve placed in the axle housing.
