It's refreshing to witness such a thorough job of ruining a historical artifact. Although to complete the irreversible damage, I would have just gone ahead and reversed the spring eyes while it was all apart. You can always cut a little off the top of the tires if they end up rubbing on the fenders.

I havent seen a press like that since I was a little kid, an extremely old man (about 85 years old which was extremely old to me at the time at age 7... Im 52 now) had it and it was being scrapped because it was too old and too much work to use instead of being easy to use like the hydrolic press his son bought for him. I wish I had that old press now.

Hello Jim and Matt. Excellent early Ford content. Right up my alley. I showed a similar job when building my 32 sedan. Can I offer a correction on a very minor point? The king pin lock bolts are only tapered on the face that contacts the kingpin. The rest of the bolt is round. The hole in the axle is a straight 9/16" hole and can be cleaned out with a drill. Matt at Irontrap said the holes were tapered and you need to know which side is the front. Duff info. The holes are straight and there is no correct front or back to the axle. Ignore that Kyle Carter. what does he know. We all know you take a bit off the bottom of the tyre to lower it. Happy New year, all the best, Mart in England.

Hi there! Few things make a job easier than having the correct tools to accomplish the job. I've not seen a purely mechanical press like that one, extremely interesting! I do appreciate the theme of doing things like back in the day but I also have zero problem if you were to use cordless power tools to assist disassembly. I'm hoping 2023 is a productive year for everyone! Stay Safe, Stay Well & Stay Warm!

Happy new year guys from Oz. Great vid using period hand tools, however, you fell into one of my pet hates when referring to “cotter” pins. Just to correct yo, cotter pins are the pin that you referred to as a conical pin I believe. In any case cotter pin are the sloped pin that locks the king pin in. The other pins that stop nuts from undoing themselves are indeed split pins. Sorry to be pedantic but so many people fall into the trap of calling split pins cotter pins for some reason. Cheers, I look forward to more quality vids. I also watch Cold War motors as well you Canadians do some fun stuff…
@upscaleshack
@upscaleshack Жыл бұрын
There's a geographic difference in terminology. Split pins in the UK are what are known as cotter pins in the US. There are even patents filed in the US on split pins referring to them as cotter pins or cotter keys within the patent itself. If the patent doesn't make it official, I don't know what would. While it may irk you to hear it, everyone in the US (and I'm guessing a large part of Canada) knows split pins as cotter pins, and calling them anything else would just create undue confusion.

@@upscaleshack Yes, definitely, and at least in the northeast states the retaining pin that holds the king pin in place is usually called a wedge pin or bevel pin (at least back in the '50s, '60s, & '70s when I worked on such things). Sure takes me back...
@Gothamauto
@Gothamauto Жыл бұрын
Another Yank here. I trained as an auto mechanic in the '70s, and spindle nuts were retained by "cotter pins" (split pins). It was not until the '90s, when I began rebuilding British and Euro bicycles as a hobby that I learned of actual cotter pins, used to retain the crank arms. Conically shaped, with one tapered side to wedge against the crank arm, and threads and a nut at the little end. They were seated with a hammer before the retaining nut was tightened...an attempt to draw them up with the threaded portion would ruin the pin.
@douglas_drew
@douglas_drew Жыл бұрын
@@Gothamauto Yes, I remember those too, in my case back in '62 when I bought my first Japanese three-speed bicycle (basically a copy of the British bikes with a longer frame) and the assembly manual called that crank retaining pin a "Cotter Pin" which, even at twelve years old, confused me. Just as an aside, your mention of spindle nuts reminds me that our cotter pins are usually thought of as ways to keep the nut from loosening, but as important in this case, it is a means to keep the nut from tightening. After moving up from mechanic to a position of investigating consumer complaints against Automotive Facilities, I had a case of a garage that left the cotter pin off the spindle nut and the vehicle owner not even making it the few miles home before the spindle nut tightened enough to twist the spindle end off.
