Hi All! A very good friend sent me the Briggs Dofasco Truck conversion set for the Atlas C-630 Tri-Mount trucks. The kit appears to be complete, but the instructions do not have any images, and I learn better visually. So does anyone know of a site which has the conversion done visually?

Hi All! I found some images online, and it confirmed my suspicions. Like the Atlas trucks( Briggs uses the same basic design) the gear case halves are tied together by tabs. These tabs keep the gear case in one piece when assembling the wheel sets and gears. When the post office delivered the Briggs conversion set, the tabs were all broken, so instead of having two gear cases I had four gear case halves. So I have two options here:
1- replace the gear cases with ones that are not broken
2: Try to replace the tabs to retie the gear case halves together. This will not happen soon as the arthritis in my hands is acting up due to the weather.
So does anyone have either new Briggs gear cases, or a complete Dofasco conversion set they could sell me?
