If I had to take a guess either long or short would be ok , I'm thinking early production had long pump and later had short !
Cheers Tony

Hi John!
My 30u when I acquired it had been on blocks for 36 years and had never had a full restoration, it did have a carter short accelerator pump still doesn't mean it wasn't replaced at some time , this car also is of the late 30U production and was built in Canada as export R/hand drive also has oval rear window , the rest I have seen in Australia are rectangle windows.

Last week end I entered the 34 Dodge into a show& shine and took out a trophy for best restored original car , must tell you I was taken by supprize as car has still a lot of small items to finish .

Hi guys !
I have to say I agree with old man ! The seals in the outer rear axle would not completely seal oil from getting on to brakes . I have replaced axle bearings and seals in my 30u and greased rear axle bearings and had no problems at all and car has travelled around 1500 miles since . If you think about it front wheel bearings run for thousands of miles in grease so why not the rear ?
Cheers Tony.
