Re: Resurrecting a 1951 Henney-Packard Parts Car

As far as I can tell, the parts book shows no washers for the u-bolts but I was surprised to see that it lists a different one for 1954 while 23rd series through 1953 Henney-Packards use the same one. This is a 1954 rear end but the car is 1951 and I saw no problem using its u-bolts on the later part!

The parts book also shows the same u-bolt nuts for all 1951 through 1954 Packard so I likely have one somewhere. I was too tired to search much today but didn't readily see any u-bolts with my other suspension parts. They are probably in a box somewhere.
