Try a semi trailer dealer, I know that style hook (or real close) was used by Utility Trailer Co. on what they called there wide frame flat bed trailers. I even think that style trailer was a little more popular up there in Canada. That could be a starting point.
I have a number for a trucking co. that is located in Pa. that might be able to help.
Couldn't tell you anything about cost, but if not in a big rush they might be able to work it back as a fill out to Pa. then wait to fill out south.
PM me if you want there number.
If you can get a AuVeCo catalog they have ever kind of auto body nut & bolt, fitting ,connector, weather stripping that you can think of and then some.
They don't sell direct on line they are dealer only ( I think some dealers are on line ? )
The truck shop I work in has a fastener dealer that...

Freight Train my magazine is right next to my desk so just had to reach over and there was issue #116.
Found the article you are looking for, a 3 page article that will walk you through R&R of steering gear box with out removing and unhooking all that needs to done to push the engine to the...
Very nice, looks like alot of hard work and time spent on both pieces, you can be proud of the end result.
I'm in the middle of getting mine ready for paint, hope it comes out looking as good as your's does.

To answer your guestion JR no I didn't, I started working on the body work that was needed so right now the right fender and door are off and the rocker panal under the door is cut out.
I have all the new metal cut, bent and fitted in place Hope to get all the welding done later today.
Will have...

Was just thinking here after reading your post, did you get an oil sample.
Higher readings in metals(copper,brass) would be a sure sign of a bearing desinagrating.
Not sure if NAPA has the weatherstripping but if you check at a body shop supply house that sells paints and other body repair supplys most have a line of body repair items that would include door and window gasket material that are different sizes and shapes.
Can't think of the name of the...
NAPA part number for front brake lines
If you have a hyd. hose shop in your area of any size they should be able to nake one up off the old if you take it in to them so they can match fitting type and lenght.
Yesterday was first nice day here in Pa. for a change could not let a little thing like no reg.tag on my deuce stop that first spring ride around the block(well maybe alittle more)
Anyway that could be a storie for an other day.
Hooked the batteries up, checked oil, drained prim. fuel...

Thanks.
24 volt chargers
With a charger rated at the 24 volts you could charge both batterys together, If you only had a 12 volt charger then you would need to disconnect them a charge then one at a time as two 12's would take longer and would require unhooking the batterys, if you had two 12 volt...
A little off topic maybe but I have been wondering about the bumper #'s and what would be correct when it comes to desplaying them.
I know that the last unit my deuce was at was a Mass. guard unit ( the inspection report that sent the truck to DRMO was in it).
They did a real good job of...
With the weather breaking soon (I hope) will be starting to do some body work on my deuce and was wondering if anyone would know what gauge sheet metal would be best to use to weld into the rocker panal area and the bottom of the door.
I could just gauge what is used from new and match but I...

Great tool, use one in the truck shop where I work makes fast work of clean up of heavy rust build up.
Can see where OPCOM's friend would say he would not care to see another one again.
Even with gloves,hearing protection and dust protection a little time goes a long way.
