Hi all,

I’ve had my T for 13 years of pretty trouble free driving, but having trouble today! I drove it today and ran great, and I was getting it ready for spring maintenance and pulled back in the garage. I took off my Ford timer to lubricate, and put back on. No start, maybe a random spark or two but not enough to start. Pulled off a dozen...

Rather than send the question directly to Russ, I'll post it here in case others are interested too.

This is a set of cast iron stops that mount to a T front axle. I’m guessing the idea was to keep the spindles from going over center.

There looks to be a manufacturer name cast in them but I can’t make it out.

I’ve never seen another set like this before. Would make a really great addition to any Model T accessory collection.
