I built this Ruckstell for a project I am no longer pursuing. Specifics are as follows:
* Complete new Ruckstell kit (26/27)
* New axle shafts, NOS axle gears, ring gear, bearings, sleeves, etc.
* Shortened driveshaft tube and radius rods for Layne Warford. New driveshaft, bearings, bushings, and 12 tooth pinion.
*Dan McEachern juice brakes and drums.
*New wire wheel outer hubs with new studs installed.
*New 26/27 inner wire wheel safety hubs.
*Lowered re-arched rear spring assembly with reversed eyes and new shackles included.
Price is $5,000. Pick up preferred. Mark Chaffin (951) 805-0928

Reduced to $5,000. Got over $6,500 invested in new parts alone. Not including labor to assemble.

Re: FS NEW ASSEMBLED RUCKSTELL AXLE
Did you have a local shop reverse the main spring eye? Or did you find elsewhere?
