Guest djsn1 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 The attached photo shows an ORIENT buckboard rear axle attached to a leaf spring. Does anyone know how the spring was attached to the frame with the bracket shown? ThanksDoug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MochetVelo Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Wouldn't it use shackles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seldenguy Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 It looks very similar to a 1909 Maxwell spring/frame attachment. The eye (hole) slides over a pin attached to the frame. Also Maxwell used an adjustable radius rod for proper driveline angle. --Bob-- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seldenguy Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Sorry, no pix,s, I sold my Maxwell a few months ago. However I think if you posted on the Maxwell site just above here someone will assist you. --Bob-- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
