new diffs and stuff
The old hull has been salvaged of all usable parts as well as the damaged diffs.
Another set of diffs arrived today which are low miles and not damaged. Very Happy.

Hi Wayne,
This arrived last week and I thought it would go rather nicely with your 'toy' in progress.  Regards

Rear Diff
Started on the front and rear diffs by knocking out the old spring pack bolts... a 3 day job.
Took the rear brake hubs off and all good inside, shoes are perfect and drums are still shiny. Confirms the fact these are real low milage units. The rear diff has two wheel cylinders per hub. 2 brake wheel cylinders were honed and came up perfect. 2 didn't. Too much pitting where gravity, time and moisture took its toll. I'll check out the front ones later and get NOS ones or sleeve these ones. Wayne.

wow!
jeez. I was looking at possibly working on a staghound in memory of my father in law who was with the 12th Manitoba Dragoons in Minnedosa, MB. After seeing this and realizing their size and limited parts, I'm tempted to make a mock one from plywood. I'll stick to my M37s for now and think about this. You are doing a wonderful job in acquiring parts and doing this the right way. Keep up the good work and good luck. e
