jim43 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Model T I believe, wouldn't know what year. I am sure someone will know that too. Jim43 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1912Staver Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Definitely not model T. 1910 - later teens but it could be any one of hundreds of different makes and models in that time span. Greg in Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsfarms Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Could you take a good close-up picture of the "A" and "L" that you described above. maybe that information could help us help you ID the rear end. Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Layden B Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 First thought with that large flange at pinion was that this is a transmission at the rear end setup. However it really is Maxwell I believe. This picture is from 1918 Maxwell instruction book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Wetherbee Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 It could be Maxwell as Layden suggests, but I believe the brake actuation shaft extended all the way to the flange at the pumpkin. If those had held a shaft that entered into the differential I would have suggested it was a rear end mounted transmission although the size of the pinion flange is certainly large enough to have held one at the end of the driveshaft.

alsfarms Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 (edited) I think it may be a few years earlier but still could very well be a Maxwell product. Is the 1918 Maxwell a "Full Floating" axle design? Al Edited February 2, 2019 by alsfarms (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikewest Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 In its stripped out present state , would be much help to anyone. (In my opinion) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsfarms Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 The need for this rear end would be someone that is building a speedster, wants an early style (not a '57 Chev.) and is willing to jump through the hoops to install all the guts from a modern rear end being able to choose the gear ratio. This conversion is lots of effort and not many fellows are willing to do that kind of work any more. Are we simply getting lazy or old? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes we might be getting old and lazy but I would add that there’s maybe a 1% need for this within the community - so without need what’s the point? Now for that 1% it’s going to be the find of the year if it’s not priced like It’s made of unobtanium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHa Posted February 5, 2019 Author Share Posted February 5, 2019 (edited) Hey guys, I'm not stupid. I realize I've got two halves of a rear end from the teens with no axles or hogs head. I don't know what it fits. I can either sell it for scrap metal or offer it here in the hopes someone will recognize it and want it. If you don't need it, why do you feel compelled to talk it down? It is worth something to the right person; its just a matter of finding the person who needs it. I am willing to offer it for sale when it would be much easier to sell it for scrap. I appreciate all the help I can get to identify it. It is in remarkably good shape. The guy I got it from was paranoid about people stealing his stuff so he took everything apart so nobody could steal anything complete. I couldn't find the rest of this differential. I believe this is a Weston Mott product and yes Maxwell used full floating differentials.

alsfarms Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Hello Al, I am more of an optimist when I come to stuff like this rear end. Someone will find a use for it, with a little patience. Any new word on your other project? Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1912Staver Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Possibly one of the smaller Buicks ? 1910- 1915 era. Notice the inner brake rod support is near the pumpkin so rods are much longer than in the Maxwell illustration. Greg in Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Warren Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 AHa, I think it is great that you thought enough about it to save it. I know that it is just a housing but, I have to tell you not to long ago I was looking for anything that I might get for the 11Maxwell AB. I am not sure what it is but hopefully someone will figure it out. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
