I was given the task of generating a working key for a Model T after-market Fox Automotive Products Corp steering wheel lock. Was told it was from a 1910 T. The steering wheel was not attached to the column and the lock was in locked position.I picked the lock and removed the cylinder and disassembled. I soaked all the parts in cider vinegar for a week, wiped each part, filed a key and reassembled....02-27-2018, 03:59 PM -

Well after screwing around with my steering box on my 31 Tudor, I have found it's to far gone to adjust. It feels like it's indexing in the center and if I loosen it up to rid the hard spot in the center, ... Whoa, ... she's ALL OVER THE ROAD!
I'm trying to figure out if I want to rebuild it myself or buy a rebuilt one or buy one of Randy's F-100 boxes.
I'm trying to keep...03-31-2018, 12:47 PM -
Am about ready to start repairs on my steering wheel. Got a couple things to run by you guys.
Since the cracks are mostly fairly fine, I am thinking about taking a Dremel tool and just slightly V ing the cracks then filling them with Bondo and finishing from there. Is Bondo a good choice? After finished I plan to prime and spray paint (rattle can) it. Is there a better way? Thanks03-19-2018, 08:42 AM -
I've just joined the Forum and looking through it so that I do not appear too stupid! I just purchase a 1930 2-dr coupe and it does have a steering problem. Almost impossible to steer. Checked the lubricant by removing the filler nut and could see NO lubricant! What lubricant needs to be used in the steering box? I'm reasonably sure that it will also need adjusting or maybe parts replacement. It's...01-11-2018, 06:13 PM
