Does anyone know who can install new balls on steering arms for a '34 BB? From what I can tell, the arms are the same as AA, except for the pitman arm. It looks like Snyders has the double arm for an exchange, but the single arm is out of stock. I have yet to talk to Snyders to see what they say.

Thank you,

I don't know about big trucks, so I'm asking. These are not replaceable like on a car spindle?

Sugarmaker has a NOS BB pittman arm for the 33-34 big trucks if you need one I think.

Bratton's www.brattons.com, 800-774-1930 can do them for Model A's, so you might give them a call.

Chris,

I sent you a PM. I'm hoping to get some photos after I get it started and moved out of the garage.

If any of you guys are wondering, Snyder's no longer reballs the big truck arms, Berts does not currently do the big trucks as the guy they use is a few months behind, and Brattons does not offer the service either. I may call Tams to see what he says. Any other ideas?
