  • Today in the shop, we tackle the job of building radius rods for the rear axle. We convert the original 1937 rear torque tube supports into radius rods. These will properly support the rear axle equipped with an open driveshaft planned in the near future.

    I've never seen you or this car build before I came across this by accident googling rear radius rods for ford model A.

    Just out of curiosity, you use a lot of heat to bend the end of those tubes in the joints to the right angle. Do you do anything to heat treat them afterwards? That much heat would leave them very soft and malleable. Seems to me that they would then be highly susceptible to fatigue failure.

      Totally understand the concern. I tried to keep the temp as low as I could just to assist the required bend.

    If your dog talked you’d probably increase viewership and engagement. It’s actually an embarrassment. Stop making excuses and get yourself a dog that talks.
