Default Not the same.....

I was able to compare them at their facilities in Lockport NY and they are not the same...... at the very least you would need to reweld the hole and redrill.

At the time they also had a very pricy set without holes drilled made of solid brass at over $100 each..... which could have been drilled to fit but the price and the lesser strenght of the brass discouraged me from buying.

The cab11/12 hinges are definitely a weak link for these trucks.... they sagged and twisted but they were not designed to last 75 years!!!! All the examples I have are stretched out at the top hinge and twisted inwards at the bottom...... makes it hard to decide what shape they were originally.

In redoing the frame work of my doors I took the opportunity to brace the weak areas around the lock which means I have added slightly to the weight the hinges will carry.

So far I have not been able to find similar lock mechanism so derusting and rebuilding is in order. On some of my locks have metal added either welded or crudely brazed on the protruding latch mechanism to counter the widening of the door gap due to sagging of the rear wall leaving the door unlatched.

Door skins are my next project.

Cheers
