Question

Good morning!!!

Does anyone know if there is a “single” rear and suspension setup without having to sacrifice a kit? I want to shorten the Autocar    A 64B tractor Kit to single axle. To match an old truck we had. I got a hood and grill resin kit that matches perfectly.

Good morning. Hopefully you have found the answer to your question by now but if not, the AMT Freightliner kits have a single axle option that may serve your purpose.

Only other option I know of is to build your own.  Use Evergreen strip stock to build the springs up by cutting varying lengths and glueing them together.  Only thing is I'd round of the edges first or you will loose the individual leaf look of the finished spring cluster.  Brackets would have to be similarly made out of strip stock and perhaps tube stock.  Another choice is to make them from brass stock soldered together at each end.
