(48-52 Uppers) My dissapointment is going to be someone elses gain. I found a pair of NOS upper front fenders burried in a shed. I made a deal with the owner (who didn't know what they were for). The problem is this, they aren't for a 48,49,or 50 F-1. They are much larger and the opening in the front(where it connects to the lower section) is larger. These fenders have never been on a truck and I really thought I hit a homerun when I saw them for the first time. The only thing I know is that they are definately NOT for a 1950 F-1 (which is what I have). I have them and can take measurements if anyone can help me out. (I'm guessing maybe F-2 or F-3 or maybe even 51 to 52).

Howdy, I gotta share this news with the folks who will appreciate it. First off, I have a '53 F-350 flatbed/ dually that I'm rebuilding/ restoring, plus a parts truck of the same year & model. So about a week ago, my wife & I are driving down the highway & she says... "Ohhh, I see an old truck up over the hill. I can tell it's old because the roof is rounded." So, up the hill we go! Today, I have a "55 F-250 sitting in my front driveway. She say's... "I like it! I want it!..." & I'm dumbfounded. So now we have a "55 too! I gotta have the best Ole lady in the county! The truck needs some work, (don't they all), but it runs & drives. Figure I'll keep it running, then when the '53 is done, fix the '55.

A few turns at a time & that might take the slop out of steering wheel. If I can help you further let me know. Check out this catalog - Eary Ford pickup parts (Fax: 937-325-1900) By the way I have a '55 Ford F150 I'm restoring. ----- Original Message ----- From: Andy Montebello To: Sent: Monday, April 24, 2000 11:09 PM Subject: [pre61-list] Steering Gear > I'm looking for a recommendation for a replacement steering gear for my 1950 > Ford Pickup.

I have a diagram of the bracket to mount the box in the frame and it shows the holes that mount the box to the bracket are 1,1/32 in apart.I can find no Toyota box that fit the specs.on my diagram.The parts stores show 3 different box's for the years of 83 to 89 and show no power gears before 1983.The diagram shows 4 holes that are in a rectangular shape and spaced 1&1/32 by 3&9/64. Boy I hope some one can help.
