Flemke front end {any aftermarket source?]

[sidcharles]

'34 to '40 vintage application/ 3d or resin will work. 24th or 25th - not that hung up on thousandths.

 

thanks

it is a component on the Sacred Path of Rites for which a modeler must attain, in order to win the coveted seventh level, $200 box of parts, for a model which in all likelihood will never be finished.

and i do appreciate the links; always one more i have never seen.

Ron Coon Resins may have the parts to get you started. He has some straight axle jackers that may work.

As BOB said, RON COON RESINS has a "front axle kit" that would already have you most of the way there.  The biggest thing on these type of front ends (and was "high-tech" for the time) was the screw-jacks so that you could "pre-load" the front end.  There have been many versions/variations of his front end, but because of his successful career & victories, his is probably the most famous.......
