Model T clutch drive drum / basket

Post by greenacres36 » Fri Nov 10, 2023 12:28 pm

I am manufacturing these parts. They are made from billet 1045 steel. Easy to balance, and come much better balanced than the originals. More durable than the original material is.


$200 plus shipping.

Consider offering some with a .003-.004" undersize hole.
That would allow the use of many center shafts that have lost their press fit from being run loose.

That is a great idea! That is up there with only suppling the upper driveshaft bushing in standard size with no room to ream for undersize driveshaft. :)
I know the voices aren't real but damn they have some good ideas! :shock:

Did you make them exactly to the FORD print? There is much more to correctly making these than meets the eye…
