William : If you ever pour Babbitt into a cold block you will only do it once. You “heat” block to dry it off. Dan

With Chaffins closing, I would think all Ruckstells whole or otherwise are worth more.

Joe: That is what I do. Have a pickup load for the scrap yard. Dan

If anyone wants to contact me use EMAIL, hard to get messages off this forum. Thanks Dan

Please post more on the timing of solenoids. Thanks Dan

I find them cracked in the valve guides too. Dan

I have a 13/14 Roadster that never was sold by the dealer. It has 13 type running gear(engine, frame, rear end)but is 14 body. Not sure about date or number, but will look. Thanks Dan

Try a steamer, like you cook with. Dan

I am working the list as they came in. Sending out total a few at a time, do not want to get too many irons in the fire at one time. Please be patient, I am getting it done. Thanks Dan

I have one of these too. Any idea what the “Red Cup Compound “ is? Thanks Dan

Guys if you put the right amount of TUBE type sealant in a tire it will balance the tire PLUS stop a flat.
Kills two birds with one stone.

Email me, fixing to part out some 21” wood wheels. You should have email address. Dan

Charles: Please see my original ad. I have to fill pre orders first. Thanks Dan

And. Yes they are, but I made up for it elsewhere!!!!!!

13/32x16 tip for rear axle housings. See my ad for them Thanks Dan

Guys: The 13/32 x 16 taps are done. If you are on the list start looking for email saying so in the next few days. I will start with who is first t on list, so may take a few days to get to you. There are a few extra ones made so if you were told you missed out I will let you know if I have enough t...

Put me on the list. Dan

The story I was told about bands is as follows. The machine the makes bands broke and will not be fixed. Another company made some but not as tight a weave. The bands are in testing now to see if they will work. Dan

I just got something I never got before. Guy sent me a self addressed label with his check. Maybe things are looking up in the T world. Thanks Dan

Thanks Dan

I have one just like it, but mine was made by Dallas Welding Machine. Was told Vulcan bought Dallas Welding. Nice machine.

Good luck selling it. Dan

Another thing that would be helpful. When you send a check, money order etc for a part, put something in the envelope besides the check. Like what you ordered. Thanks Dan

Dean: What I have been finding is that if the rivets are not loose then the driven plate will be cracked. Does not matter if wide or narrow.
I think it has to do with 4th main alignment. Pan straightness.

By the time they are faced off where they are square, the space is too wide for the new bushings. I am finding this on most axles now days. Dan

Guys: I am thinking about making a run of washer shims for the Front Axle Spindles Bushings. This will go under the bushings to add height to take up for wear in the front axle “yoke”. That will keep you from having to weld up axle and machine back to size. Any interest? Thanks Dan You can post here...

Hone them with Sunnen hone and you will never use a reamer again. Dan

Email sent. Thanks Dan

Get the 25 Roadster pickup. Dan

Do not know.

Hate I missed out on this. Dan

Got mine and they look great. Going to install some today. Thanks Dan

What you are calling a valance, Ford called a Radiator Apron part # 3977 1923-25. That is from Ford Parts List August 5 1028.
The shell is part # 3947-B, Radiator Shell, 1917-23.
# 3977 came out in late 1923 cars with HIGH Radiators. Dan

Any idea what year this mat fits? Thanks Dan

Low radiator 1917to1923&1/2. High radiator, 1923&1/2 to 1925. 1926/27 also high, a little different shell.

At one time someone made a oversized ( O.D.) cam shaft bearing. Does anyone still make them? Thanks Dan

Many moons ago the other T club was reproducing them. Looks like good thing to do again. Dan

You are welcome. If you have questions, email me. Here is a link to video showing the Stevens Front Axle tool in action.

Correct term world wide is “Welch Plug” AKA Core Plug.

He keeps changing names to some posters. So if anyone gets email from me asking coil questions, not me.

Bob: That is what I am getting. Still getting them this morning.

I got a email today about coils from mtfca. Just got another one asking about it,so guess I was not the only one. Have we been hacked again?
I was not listing my email address to help stop that, but looks like that does not work. Dan

Sent email to NH Sno Cars and have not gotten reply. Sent another today, is he still in business? Any info appreciated. Thanks Dan.

Any good auto machine shop should have one. They can do the job for you.
By the way, I use mine all the time. Very good piece of equipment.

Here is one on eBay with lots of tooling.
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Sunnen-Hone-Ho ... 2653600475

Sunnen hone made to do the job. Look it up on google. Dan

Looks like I am missing the two pieces that are showing in the picture Dan posted. I will have to watch for them . Thanks

Found this my stash of stuff, thought you guy would like to see it. Box says it is a spare tire lock for 1926 Ford.

Look what is on the box.

Thanks for looking Dan

Guys: The taps are all spoken for. I will let you know if there are any back outs. Thanks Dan

If anyone ordered one and has NOT got a reply, please email me now. Please use the email address in the picture. NOT the forum private message. Also, use you real name in the email along with your Forum name so I make sure I only count you one time. There are only 6 taps left if I am counting right....

If you installed new al pistons and did NOT hone the piston pins, there is your problem.
