Default Horn rod length

Hi folks,

My 1929 Fordor did not have the horn rod when I bought it. So I don't know how long I need it to be, can anyone shed some light on this?

I have a 7 tooth steering box with a splined hub, if that helps. Car was manufactured April of 1929.

Thanks!

There's only one length light switch rod for the '28-29 seven-tooth columns: 45 3/4". The part number and price for this item from Snyder's is A-3616-B at $69.95.

I've seen 45 listed for the 28-29, as well as the 45 3/4.

You've answered my question though, and the 45 3/4 will be what I get. Thanks!

The 45 inch horn rod is for the two tooth 1929 column. Is your a 7 tooth column or a 2 tooth column?

Its definitely a 7 tooth. I rebuilt it. MACs didn't specify on the horn rods 2 or 7 tooth. They just listed the lengths.
