From Dave's info all Standard Eights had the same setup by part number. While for the Super Eights all had the same setup but different from the Standard Eight. Although I'm confused by this "the 1934 Super Eight links have different grommets and cite use of ball nuts" because Tom's pic's appear to show, to my untrained eye, compression rubber type fittings and not ball joints. Is this so? Or have I misidentified the fittings in the pic's? And Tom, thanks for the pic's they are great.


Mal,

I think ball nuts are what you see holding the rubber grommets onto the shaft. In fact, I think the grommet is part of the nut. From what I can tell, they are used where linear motion is providing the stress. Dave, please correct me if I'm stoned.
