For ‘22 Centerdoor. Seem to be rare and hard to find, ones that are not badly worn anyway. Anyone out there with a set for the rear as well?
Neither Hank Lee nor Model T Haven have any serviceable ones.
Thanks, Ron

Tough item to locate Ron - our '19 uses the same !

Would any of these work? I have no relation to the seller or the ads.

Thanks, Mark. I must have missed the magic words when I was searching eBay. Took a close look and best I can tell the ones offered are worn as badly as are mine. May have to bite the bullet and use a repro set until I can find a good set, or, since here in HSV we’re a hotbed of R&D, I might just see what it might take to have some reproduced at a decent price. We’ve got a lot of local precision machine shops.

If I find/make any, Steve, I’ll let you know.

v/r,

Ron

Thanks ! You might check with Bob Bergstadt (Bob's antique Auto Parts) - his Dad had stashes of NOS parts.

He goes by "FATMAN" on the Forum.

A friend of mine takes the ones that aren't worn below the thread diameter, puts them in his lathe (in a fixture) and turns them round, then presses a sleeve on them to bring them back to original diameter--voila! new again.

Thanks, folks! I’ll have to check with Bob and this also gives me an excuse to get on the move and get the antique lathe out of storage and get it set up. Much appreciated.

I have looks to be 3 n.o.s. rears with Ford script and one used rear, Bob

Thanks, Bob, sent you a PM.

And, an email. Thx
Ron

Ron, they are rebuildable. In past posts Steve Jelf and I showed the tools we used to hold shackles welded up for re turning down to size. Others may be able to refer you to our posts.

Allan from down under.

Thx, Allan. I’ll see if I can scare up those posts.

I just found one pair ( 1 side ) Ford script fronts with good shanks, they are used but still in good shape, see photo's, Bob

Bob, sending you an email. Tnx Ron

Thanks FATMAN and MTFCA! Set of rears are on the way which I also will need.
