1929 tudor front radius rod question
I was crawling around under my newly acquired tudor, & noticed a logging chain hooked to the radius rod cap. It wraps tightly up against the trans on the passenger side, & is bolted to a hole, with a nut/bolt in the trans mount. I'm thinking maybe the whole assembly holding the rods in place are broken, & the chain is holding it all in place. Does anyone have a "breakdown" on how they assemble under the trans?

Most all parts suppliers have diagrams of all the parts, just hope the socket is not broke.

I am so sorry for your plight, but could you possibly post some pictures. I’d love to see how this is positioned!
Who in their right mind would wrap it with a chain? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I found this drawing which you should find useful. It is part of the laminated drawings that MAFCA and MARC sell. I have found them valuable when working on my car.

"Farmer fix."
Not to run this down. I've met some pretty smart farmers. Joe K

You would laugh at my tudor as it is a farm car, not worried about what it looks like as it is driven off road. Someone put a metal top on and I have coated it wilt Flex Seal to keep it from leaking around the edges, that works but someone will not like it some day when they work on the car. I tend to fix things original if I can but what ever works, I don't think I will use a chain to hold things together, that is a bit much. |

i kind of "enjoy" looking at farmer fixes. I go to a lot of auctions, i drag home lots of model a stuff. Frames seemed to be especially susceptible to that kind of repair.
