Gabbe Posted April 21, 2020 Report Posted April 21, 2020 Dear fellow members. I'm from Stockholm, Sweden and are working on my 1948 Chrysler Traveler. I've come to a halt when I have problem getting spare parts for the differential. All the sites, AB, Rock Auto etc can not supply me with the differential side gears I badly need. Does anybody out there know who handles these gears? Also, another question: Are there by any chance that my vehicle has got a HD rear axle? I've purchased from AB rear inner oil seals but they are to small. I'm looking forward for Your reply. All the best. //Gabby Quote
Dodgeb4ya Posted April 21, 2020 Report Posted April 21, 2020 No such HD options in a six cylinder Chrysler Traveler or even an eight cylinder... On the 1946 to 48 Chryslers there are two different inner axle seal sizes that were used depending on production numbers. Make sure you have the exact sizes OD,ID and width before ordering the inner and outer seals. If your inner and outer old seals have part numbers use those numbers for getting the correct replacements. Quote
Gabbe Posted April 21, 2020 Author Report Posted April 21, 2020 Thank you Zen Master ?. Any ideas around the side gears? Quote
Dan Hiebert Posted April 21, 2020 Report Posted April 21, 2020 The "Links Directory" at the top of the page has some other sources worth trying. I've gotten some really hard to find NOS parts from AMS Obsolete (not listed in the noted directory). www.AMSNOS.com Quote
Dodgeb4ya Posted April 21, 2020 Report Posted April 21, 2020 Yep AMS or Deception Pass Motor Parts Quote

Gabbe Posted April 29, 2020 Author Report Posted April 29, 2020 Thank you all. I was wrong. It´s the pinion gear that is broken. // Gabby Quote
