junkflyboy Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Where would begin to look for the little arms that extend out of the body that support the convertable assembly when the top is in the down position? whoeaver restored this one has plugs in the body over the rear wheel where the arm would come out of the body.

studeq Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Would be helpful if you would state the year of the convertible to which you are referring, 1916, 1927, 1931....? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

studeq Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 You would be well advised to join the Antique Studebaker Club and do some networking with members. They offer free advertising in their bi-monthly magazine. There are lots of Light Sixes in the club. http://www.theantiquestudebakerclub.com/membershippage/membershippage.htmSome information below that may be of interest.

STUDE48 Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 You are looking for Studebaker part #46707. I may have what you need pm me with the dimension of your bows folded at the point where the plug is in the body. I have a pair that measure 7 1/4 " tall inside the support Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stude Light Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 The 46707 part number is called out for the 1920-1922 and the 1924 Light Six. The parts book calls out a left (46428) and a right (464270) for 1923 and list them also for 1924 (along with the 46707). I have no clue why they would want a left and right part number as the parts seem like they should be designed symmetrical and could plug into either side. Regardless, the 46707 part number is pictured below and measures 7-5/8" tall with the rubber installed, so you could probably make STUDE48's parts work. The 46707 part number has the support bolt 3" from the lower end while the 46427 and 46428 part numbers measure 1-1/4" from the support bolt to the lower end.Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STUDE48 Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 When I got out my precision ruler and not my tape measure I measured 7 5/8" same as yours thanks. all I know for sure is they did not fit my special six. And that Studebaker did not put the part numbers on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
