Thanks for all the advice to my prior post. As a follow up: I pulled the rim off the wheel to see what was going on.

1.All the nuts holding the hub to the to the backing plate. Every one was loose! I checked them all originally when I checked out the axle and bearings. I drove it around 20 miles since than and now they are all loose. I tightened...

I'm new to the model T game so I'm just learning. What I'm learning so far is that this is a very expensive hobby! Ouch, anyway I have a 1926 Coupe with wood spokes. I just realized my spokes are loose. I'm finding different size tenon holes and lengths via the vendors. Is there a way to determine which ones I currently have so I can order spokes...

Alright y'all got a real good one for you. let's say someone wanted to drop the rpms in their T at 40 mph
without installing the steep 3:1 gears and wanted to have say a 3.33 ratio. the 12 tooth pinion is meant to be used with a Ruckstell ring gear.
i'm wondering if it is possible to use a Ruckstell 40 tooth ring gear on a standard Ford diff. yes...

I took this picture at work about a year ago. It's a little humerous to compare parts from my T to other things sometimes. For some reason I took my carb to work one day to mess with after hours. On the table was a different carburetor, a carburetor for a T-28, or more specifically an R-1820-86b.
I didn't take the cover off, not at a rebuild...

A neat 'period' conversion barn find is up for sale locally. I thought you may be intrigued with the car to TT rear axle conversion that was done (these are the only pictures):

It's been 11 years ago that posted looking for information to identify a carburetor. Turned out to be a Wizard or Simmons, no markings on it.

Since then that carburetor has been sitting on the shelf collecting dust. I'm now retired and thought I would take a shot at bringing it back to life.
The two things needed for it are the flapper and the...

For half a century, members of the Rose City Model T Club have had access to Hand Cranked Coil Testers (HCCT) to tune up Model T coils. Nearly two decades ago, the club invested in a Strobo-Spark and it was a game changer. Today, the Electronically Cranked Coil Tester (ECCT) is available, which tests coils using dwell instead of amperage.

Since the passing of Stan and Russ does anyone have a source of valve seats and floats for the Kingston 5 Ball Carb?

The Stan Howe setup work great. The float is from a Harley Davidson.

The 1909 float and seat aren’t original. The problem is the seat is some sort of plastic ball and it hangs up.

Any source would be greatly appreciated....

My 1909 Touring has a nasty habit of leaking oil all over the engine bay and undercarriage from the open valve train. Not only is the oil unsightly, but the oil is a pain to clean after just a short drive. To solve the problem, I made a leather valve cover that straps to the engine and the problem is now taken care of!! The leather cover has two...

Last year I bought a very original early model year 1914 touring that has a late November 1913 engine. It has some transition parts like a two piece driveshaft and likely the original carburetor that was used for the 1913 model year, a Holley S. The car was in running condition when I got it, but for some reason, I really had a hard time getting...

If you've got an early T here's an engine for you. According to the T SN listing, this engine was in a car sold in Dec. 1911. There isn't a casting date on the engine (that I've found). The SN on it is 88211, So this was probably in a 1912 Model year car. However, it could have been in an 11 sold late. Here in Ky we didn't have a title law until...
