rwilson 128 #1 Posted January 26, 2010 Does anyone have a picture and dimensions of a deck for a 60 400 suburban? I have all of the spindles all I am looking for is the shell and dimensions so I can fab one up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wallfish 18,072 #4 Posted January 30, 2010 Is a 61 deck from a 401 the same exact size? I have one of those I can measure if it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rwilson 128 #5 Posted January 30, 2010 I would think it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wallfish 18,072 #6 Posted January 30, 2010 If you look in the picture gallery under 400 you will see the first pic with a 400 deck. Mine looks like the second pic. I guess we should have looked there first. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
linen beige 15 #7 Posted January 30, 2010 If you look in the picture gallery under 400 you will see the first pic with a 400 deck. Mine looks like the second pic. I guess we should have looked there first. The second pic doesn't have a '60 deck on it. The '60 and '61 decks are different. I have a '60 deck, but it is still in a shed 75 miles from here. I'm down there several days a week and might be able to get you some pics if the air ever gets any warmer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CasualObserver 3,411 #9 Posted January 30, 2010 Rich, Sorry, completely missed this post the first time: Mine is the first pic, and that is the 1960 RMR-32. I think it's snowed in back in the garden shed, but it might be in the garage... I'll try to remember to check and see. If I can get to it, what specifically are you looking for?

CasualObserver 3,411 #12 Posted February 1, 2010 Rich... I took a bunch of pics... hopefully they'll help. click this picture. The shell is made from one big flat piece of 3/32" sheet steel. 17" from front to back, and from right to left it is wrapped over the 32"x1" angle iron in the front and back. The sides are 4 5/8" tall and the bottom flange is 5/8" laid over a 1"x3/16" runner. Where the flange is laid over the runner at the end of each, the width has been trimmed to 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
