Default Bogies...

Thanks Michael for your complete answer, I have to renew the rubber (Rubber coating) on all wheels, I noticed from picture slight difference on the wheel, now I see one inch difference on rubber , I found someone can do the Rubber coating.
Thanks

You are welcome.

You may find the tire portion on the 19 inch track adjuster wheel is set deeper inside the wheel as compared to the CTL 94x3 20 inch bogie wheel. There is some documentation to suggest this allows the track horns to bear against the more exposed steel rim of the track adjuster wheel during the track warping operation. Nigel Watson makes a brief reference to this in Volume I of his work in Universal Carriers.

Default engine mount question,

long time since my last updates, I ordered from ebay a kit Engine Bisquits "Flathead Ford " Motor Mounts Universal 1932 34 36 37 39 40 Ford.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Engine-Bisq...5Z25ue&vxp=mtr

Now my question is what are the Bolts (also length) and Nuts size for the engine mount?
I took the picture from Petr Brezina (Thanks)
marked in blue

Thanks

Hi Israel, although they are not "proper" I put there metric bolts, I think M10x25 would be fine.

Default large hole, 1 & 1/8" motor mount kits

Some of the carrier motor mount kits as supplied by Mac's have been made in India. Notice the number of components in each kit. The split pin is not pictured.
