Freeland Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 For our restoration of a Diamond T I am looking to swap the post-war 1950's water hose clamps for the proper wartime types. Going through the spare materials in the workshop, I came across these: I am pretty sure the left (open) and middle (closed) clamps are wartime types for Jeep, Dodge etc. (?). The one on the right is the proper size for the Diamond water hoses, not sure if it is the correct type though. Can anyone tell me what clamps to look for? Would it be the first two types but then in a larger diameter? Many thanks for your input! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwiitrucks Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I think you will have to look at every picture in the manuals. Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freeland Posted February 1, 2015 Author Share Posted February 1, 2015 Thanks Jeff. I found out that any of the clamps of the above pic would go. Also Wittek's "Noc-Out" type clamps would do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwiitrucks Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 I hope to start on my 981,969A some day. Do know who has the head gaskets for the DFXE. Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freeland Posted February 5, 2015 Author Share Posted February 5, 2015 Hi Jeff, I understand you would be looking for the DT head gaskets(?). Since I am located in The Netherlands, you might want to check with member "diamond-t-steve" here on the forum. He may know of some contacts in the US who can deliver these.
