VCCA Home Forums TECHNICAL - 1945 AND EARLIER 1929-1932 29-30 wheel carrier

Anyone know how to tell if the carrier in the picture is for a 29 or 30? Parts book shows a different part number for the main section, probably due to tire size difference? Measurements of a known one could help.

Thanks

Dave

Dave, i have one on my 1929 i can pull dims.
i figure the 1930 is a tad smaller since the tire would be 1" smaller in diameter

Thanks Jerry that would help.

Dave sorry for delay, dodging rain drops here. Tropical storm rolling through so wind and rain galore last day plus.

Vertical inside approx 15 7/8 (on top of lower flat where stud is vertical to underside of top cross channel)
vertical outside 17 5/8 (under lower flat lip where stud is vertical to top of top cross channel)
horizontal inside @ widest point approx 15 1/2
horizontal outside @ widest point approx 17 1/8
top channel width approx 2

circumference of tire channel approx 49 1/2 (this is from where channel starts around inside to where channel ends)

Thanks Jerry very detailed.

If I am measuring the right spots and I think I am my carrier is slightly smaller which would be right for the 30 rim going to 19" instead of 20".

In order of Jerry's measurements this one is 15 3/8, 17 1/4, 15 1/8, 16 9/16, 2", and 47 1/4.

The rim lock looks different as well, picture attached.
