Re: Pinion assembly installation-What does restore actually mean?
Benson,
That is a funny but all too often true story.... I worked on one last week at one of the local car musuems the previous owner did a lot of that. some call it "perfume on a pig" . All the best! Larry |

Re: Pinion assembly installation
Good Afternoon...People who do such things certainly will not go to the big Model A Garage in the sky, they will most likely go to a the war in Afghanistan and have to stay there until the end of time, or maybe they will be made part of the crew of the 'Flying Dutchman' doomed to attempting to sail around the horn until the end of time! Or perhaps stuck on a Camel on the North African Desert until the end of time!Ernie in Arizona

The early 1928 banjos do not have support gussets at the torque tube flange and are prone to crack behind the flange. The two axle housing mounting bolt holes on each side closest to the flange will most always be found to have a crack running from them. It is prudent to replace the banjo with a later one that has support gussets during an overhaul unless you are building a 28 blue ribbon car. Discarded torque tubes are not difficult to find, there is an abundance of them with all the overdrives that have been installed. they have no value and people who regularly install overdrives are tripping over them.
