Modifications
Morning Bob,
As always you come up trumps, now the next question is, do you have or know where I can get the driven arms that I need to complete this carrier? Many thanks for your reply . Regards, Ron

Bin platform
These show the newly manufactured bin platform and side wings in place not welded in as yet I will do that after the diff is fitted its much easier to fit the diff before these plates are welded in
Regards, Ron

Ford must supply at least two different main shafts for these boxes. The short one (internal thread) fits the English and Canadian carriers, and the long one (external thread), the LP2/2a's.
I think the short one is from the enclosed drive shaft models, whilst the long one, is from the exposed drive shaft trucks. What I'd like to know now; is the long shaft the same as the one in the Dodge 4 speed truck box (New process)? The cluster, 1st, 2nd,and 3rd gear are the same as Ford.

Drive shaft
Hello Lyn,
And thanks for your prompt reply, well that explains it, and makes sense, I could not work out what was wrong, so it looks as if I have to get a longer main shaft for this gear box? sure makes life interesting, many thanks Ron

Gear box shaft
Hi Lyn,
Thanks for your help regarding the longer shaft, I managed to get one of these today, also the driven arm to fit the tapered shaft of the diff, I am heading off in the morning to look at some more carriers on a station out west there are 7 or 8 of them in various state of disrepare, should be good for some parts, Thanks again for your help, Regards, Ron

Re Rubber U C wheels
Hi Guys,
In case any one in Qld wants to get their Australian carrier wheels re rubbered, here is the place where I have had a few sets done, they do an excellent job,it takes about five days to get a full set of eight re done, I have no conection with this company,I just got them to make the mould so that we can all take advantage of the chance to get our wheels redone, I was talking to them a couple of weeks back and they are interested in making rubber for items like half tracks and Stuart tanks, give them a call with your problem,lets keep them interested for now and the future, my next project is to get someone interested in making new track Regards, Ron,
