1920 Big Six parts needed

[dl456]

Hello,

I have a transmission leak on my Big six and need a couple parts.

Part # 31924 front pinion bearing oil washer

Part # 31925 front pinion bearing washer retainer

Part # 31906 ( I think this a felt seal or packing of some sort. Parts book not clear.  Anybody know? 

Thanks,

Dennis

Anybody have dimensions for these parts ?

Maybe I could fabricate them.

Thanks,

Measure ID and OD of the parts you need. I converted all of my axle seals to rubber and found all the seals by matching dimensions at a General bearing supplier.

Thanks for the reply.

I have a modern lip seal in there now.

Still seeps.

I would really like to know how it was sealed originally. 

Unfortunately, not much info. in the parts or service manuals.

Originally it had a felt seal that was compressed axially by tightening up the bearing washer retainer which would force it out radially a bit and squeeze the shaft.  Kept the dirt out but would weep a bit.

Order the parts prints from the museum.

Based on previous inquiries, I don't think the museum has much in the way of prints from the 1920s era.  Guess you could ask though.
