<HTML> My pal has a 1919 735B (vee conds) the crown wheel on the diff has bad wear on it , probably needs pinion as well Where do I get the parts please,
I have a crown wheel with about three "bumped" teeth on one face would it be sensible to run forard on the good face?</HTML>

<HTML>The pinion on the crank shaft was hardened, it probably has much less wear than the ring gear. Go ahead and use the good side of your gear. Be warned, Stanley differentials were not machined true. They considered it normal to cut the ring gear teeth AFTER mounting the blank on the differential!</HTML>
