Recently we came across (9) New Old Stock mechancial governors. These were built by the Pierce Governor Company and are very similar in dimension to the original King-Seeley mechanical governors used on the 1-ton Dodge Power Wagons built 1946-53 and equipped with the square top carb and integral governor base. They were used in conjuction with the rear PTO shaft and rear belt pulley assembly that was a factory option on early Power Wagons. With the help of Power Wagon expert Clint Dixon, these governors have been modified to replace the original King Seeley units. We have gathered and are currently manufacturing all the neccessary parts to build (9) complete assemblies. Parts are identical to originals and will include the governor, correct brass arms, springs, adjusting bolts, mounting bracket, double fan pulley, complete linkage between carb and governor as well as all linkage between the governor and the underdash control assembly, including the underdash control. The kits will include all mounting hardware and belt. Only the Governor Pulley is different, being somewhat smaller, but completely adequate. Clint has done a meticulous job in assuring that these reproduction mechanical governors/parts and all machine work are as close to original as possible. Clint's knowledge on the Power Wagon Mechanical Governor is unsurpassed. He, of course, has a complete original unit for comparison and fitting on his own WDX Power Wagon. This is a one-time offering and once these are gone, they're gone. We realize that a number of fellow Power Wagon owners also have various parts and pieces of the this rare accessory item and yet may be missing certain component parts. If you're one of these individuals, we invite you to e-mail us a list of the component parts that you're missing. In the coming month we will have pricing available for individual parts as well as complete assemblies. A copy of the original instruction manual will be inlcuded with your order. Remember this is a one time offering, not only with the complete mechanical governor, but component parts as well. To reserve your assembly or parts, contact us soon. (2 units are sold 4-26-01)

Many thanks to all of our friends & customers!
