mfg Posted April 30, 2016 Report Posted April 30, 2016 The diameter of the factory drain hole in Studebaker Avanti underfloor support boxes (hog troughs) is 1/4".....True?
Gunslinger Posted May 1, 2016 Report Posted May 1, 2016 False...there are no drain holes in the hogs. If there were, moon roof equipped cars wouldn't suffer rusted out troughs so badly since the moonroof drains are routed into them with no place to go...not that non-moonroof equipped cars don't also suffer. One would think either Studebaker or Avanti Motors would have had drain holes installed...maybe with removable caps to allow draining.
mfg Posted May 1, 2016 Author Report Posted May 1, 2016 Gunslinger feels that Studebaker did not provide a drain hole in those Avanti 'hog troughs'....Any other thoughts on this?
brad Posted May 5, 2016 Report Posted May 5, 2016 i think the hole just in front of the rear outrigger (in front of the rear spring hanger) is about 1/2"
mfg Posted May 6, 2016 Author Report Posted May 6, 2016 brad is CORRECT on this.....The answer though is FALSE, as the question specified 1/4"!
