I don't know of anyone who works on them but I have a pdf that I downloaded from the net. It has a lot of Info. I just don't know how to post it here. Google Truckstill and Tip-Toe Matic. There is a mention of them on the HAMB and also the Stovebolt BB I think.

The "File manager" won't allow pdf files, but if you e-mail me a copy I'll post it to my site, and post a link - then anyone can down-load by clicking.

Some kind soul has also posted a set of individual images of the Truckstell literature. I recall reading about the unit back in the early fifties, but I've never seen one.

Here is a link to an earlier thread about Truckstells. Evidently it was Ken who sent the pdf file I have. Funny that I found this link by Googleing and could not find it in a search here. I'll try to figure out how to get you a link to the file. I Googled Truckstell Overdrive and got a lot of hits. Beater

Truckstell Link
Manual
Sorry I didn't see Hoyt's post. That is the info I have. Tom

I had purchased a Truckstell unit at one time - sent a check to the seller and when the weekend came and I was headed out to drive 200 miles to go pick it up - the guy calls and said he was mailing my check back because he decided that he wanted to keep it. . .

I ended up going a different direction and got an open driveline rearend and used an A833 tranny with a GM snout to get OD.

If anyone else needs the information, I still have it around here somewhere.

Ken, In that old thread Titen said he would put this in the Tech-Tips if you sent it to him. Could you do that please. Beater

tjtenold@pacbell.net, or webmaster@inliners.org.

Thanks Ken. My friend with the Truckstell ended up losing the truck to his X. She'll never do anything with it.
