Find Deuce and PM him. He should be able to help, he knows as much as anyone on the 32.

Go to search, Write Deuce, Go down to thread, 32 suspension, open that, go down about half a page, and you will find Deuce, click on the line under Deuce and it will ask you if you would like to PM him, click on that and leave your message he will get back to you.

The center of the hole is back 4 and 1/2 inches from the body edge. The hole is 1 and 1/4 inches high and NO ... the hole is not tapped nor round. It is square. It is 3/16ths thick.

These measurements were taken off my Henry Ford original steel 32 roadster and the Brookville roadster I have in my shop. I am working on it for a friend.





You can go here to see the bracket and it's placement.

The bracket is available from Wescott or Brookville.

You can go here to see how the setup works

Here is another photo ...
ORINIGAL 32 Ford roadster ...

Not my roadster but it is a old magazine cover roadster from the 60's.

I have no idea why the hole is not round. I would imagine the hole is broached ... and was possibly square to hold the bracket in place while being machined. I guantantee you ... HENRY had it square for a reason.

Not a problem at all ...
