I am fortunate that after a long search I was able to buy a set of the long out of production 3:50 gear sets for my '31. They are the earlier riveted type. Asking around locally none of the truck garages or rear end shops have the riveting equipment anymore. I do have a 20 ton press but I am apprehensive about doing it myself. Having never done it before I don't have a feel for the technique and what to expect.

Also I do not have the back up bucking tools. Larry told me he remembered a couple of loaner sets floating around the Club. Does anyone still have them?

I would very much like to hear from anyone who has done this job and can share any advice. Thanks, Carl
