Hi is there any where I could buy a 1929 Hudson super six fly wheel ring gear
It is beyond repair and needs to be replaced I am in Australia and this car is list as a 1930 model but the body was built here and I believe is was made in 1929
Regards Ray Hudson
Here in Wellington New Zealand, the spares section of our local Vintage Car Club has yielded 2 NOS ring gears for my 28 Essex. They were not labelled & needed to be measured against a sample. Maybe you have a similar Club in Aus!!
Hi
did you use both of them ?
do they have any more I should have mine out this week and will do the measurements and count the teeth
Regards Ray
Hi Ray
I used one & would like to keep the other as a spare as I have 2 x 1928 Essex Coupes to keep on the road..
Is the 29 Hudson flywheel the same as the smaller engined Essex?
You maybe able to build up teeth with weld & reshape them if that's your problem.

The Hudson and Essex ring gears are not compatible. I can probably get you a Hudson ring gear but not cheap, (around U.S.$130 plus postage.

Hi that sounds great to me and would go ahead but first I think I should pull the old one out and count the teeth and get a size does that sound right to you i have been a bit worried about getting one thats for sure and appreciate your help

Contact me direct on NZgeoffclark@xtra.co.nz (Leave the NZ off the address, that's just a spam foiler. Your ring gear should have 118 teeth.
