As I get older I need to make It easier to work on Model T axles. I have used the orange cart for many projects over the last 50+ years. The blue parts are newly made to hold Model T rear axles.

Super Cool!!! Nice cart setup. Wish I had room for something like that. Get tired working on the floor in what space I can fit the job into.

Great setup! Sure beats the trash can that I used to support my driveshaft housing. I did cut a hole in a 2x10 and bolted it to my workbench to support the axle housing.

Bill,
You win the Best New Product Award for Model T owners for 2020, hands down!! So when are you going to start production?

After about the first ten or so Ruckstells I rebuilt I made a similar setup. Handy, Dandy Deal!! I put a little winch on mine to lift them up to the holder bar. Mine is now laying on the iron pile at the ranch. I like yours a lot!

What a genius...

Good idea and nice work.

Great idea, but .......

Where’s the chair ?

Will you be able to install the radius rods with the driveshaft already bolted to the housing?

Small drum - Yes - large drum - No.

Mark, I took the drive shaft tube and radios rods off as usual but re installed the tube to show that the swinging arm works for both horizontal and In the vertical position.

Thank you for all the kind words. I made It to save whats left of my knees and back.

If anyone would like to make there own setup I can supply any or all the blue parts.

Thank you
Bill

Very nice piece of engineering, Bill ! I hear what you're saying about the "ol' knees" problem !
