Re: 1941 project fenix

sorry, no drawings exist. these trucks were assembled pre WWII and production variance was up to 1/4" in every direction, that is a 1/2" tolerance, impossible to plan for. the only way I can explain it is that on the production line the cab was put down on the frame amd the bolt holes were hand drilled through the mount and the frame at the same time.

the best way I tell everyone to start is to mount the cab level 5 inches off the frame, then put the front clip on and see how the wheels line up. I build mounts for local guys and only on the predicate that I come over and help them set them up. instructions would be useless volumes of typing.

AD mounts will not help, the AD mounts go outside the framerails and the 41-46 mounts need to be inside the framerails.
