Hi, I'm new here and I just bought a 1928 9" with Silent Drive and a 40" bed.
There are two copper tubes, one in the gear box and one in the saddle. Is there supposed to be felt in them? If so, how long should it be?
The one reverse idler has a broken stud. from searching here that appears to be not uncommon.Is someone making them or is that my first project?
Seems to be in OK shape other than the hideous institution green paint that I am stripping off and pounds of chips and shavings in it.
I have been a member at OWWM/OMWM for quite a few years and the publications-VM.org are down right now. Does this site have something similar with parts guides and manuals?
Thank you in advance.
