Dreaded Fan Blade Cracks - 1929 Std 6
ArticiferTom replied to Poppy510's topic in Dodge & Dodge Brothers
Not only Dodge but all pre war car fan blades. My Pontiac threw a blade 35 years ago but only bent radiator fins. A pinto fan fit perfect just needed to have two holes drilled to match the three bolt hub. This should be posted somewhere so all pre war drivers will know to check their fans. Copy of that post .

Dreaded Fan Blade Cracks - 1929 Std 6
ArticiferTom replied to Poppy510's topic in Dodge & Dodge Brothers
I finial found that thread again, reading over it . I gave incorrect info . the Pinto fan was for a Pontiac . The Chrysler used a 1950's Chrysler fan . Ebay shows a couple different types of those . No other specifics where given . There where some measurement on the fans . Will have to try and get some from my Dodge to cross . Hope someone come thur with exact info ,too . -

Do not know . I think ebay says it fits other Fords and Mercury's . Do mount holes match centers ? Check blade length tip to tip also . Does look like same design . -
GREASE IN TRANSMISSION UNIVERSAL JOINT
ArticiferTom replied to Terry Wiegand's topic in Buick - Pre War
The ott greases should be right . Double ott NLGI rated is what is used in steering boxes . You can find at your Tractor Supply store , in by the tractor lift and drive shafts . Those look pretty similar to tractor shafts joints . -

Chrysler Product Radiators 1931-early 1960s
ArticiferTom replied to dpcdfan's topic in Chrysler Products - General
Leomara , If your talking about mine just above no it is a Dodge diamond style . Same as DC8 . Core is fine . The bottom was left sit in mud and rusted support off bottom and started up sides this eroded tank bottom gaping hole and outlet is poor . Tank could maybe be pieced back but support would be to much work at this point . I have a later style in truck . But ,it is one thing would like to get back to more original , not necessary pretty . Thanks . -

Early Ambulance body twist concerns.
ArticiferTom replied to Bush Mechanic's topic in General Discussion
Are you taking back to horse drawn or on the Dodge chassis ? Maybe some one in Amish country could shed light . This seems like typical buggy design still built today . -
See if Remflex Gasketing make one there all graphite , thick units should easily handle that difference .

Grease should probably be NGLI "OO" grease . Called double ott or corn-head . Is more fluid then number two or one chassis grease . After changing or verifying grease , then do adjusting based on type of box . BOI should guide you . Lots of good help doing a search on here . Start in Dodge threads , then Tech threads . Most cars used same in 20, 30's .

What you gasketing ? Center can be thicker . Also are ends ferrules ?
