i looking for the internal spring and the dust cover for a 1948 ford f6. dose any one that sell just the spring or the whole set. thanks

 

You could try Dennis Carpenter, www.dennis-carpenter.com, or Job Lot Auto, www.joblotauto.com. Carpenter has the kit for the smaller trucks, I don't know if they're the same for the larger trucks. Job Lot carries a lot more parts for the larger trucks than most of the other truck places like Carpenter. Also, have you tried your local NAPA store, or any other good, non chain auto parts stores? You'd be surpised at what a good parts store can get for our old trucks. Also, check you area for a places that do front end repairs and sell parts, if they don't have what you're looking for they may be able to steer you to some one that does.

 

B5TZ3A533A .. Drag Link Ball Stud Repair Kit (the only way the parts you need were available).

Howdy,

Be particularly careful to ask whomever you buy it from to pull the rubber parts out of the package and look them over before they send it to you.

I bought one from Joblot (new old stock of course) and when I pulled on the rubber parts (dust cover), they crumbled in my hand.

I had to buy the whole kit by the way....

You may have to make your own dust cover.


Regards,



Rick

 

If you're West Coast, check with Fast Undercar... they had all my F-5 brake parts for $180 (JobLot was asking ~$250 IIRC)

 

I checked the Under Car web site, it looks like you have to be an auto repair shop to buy from them. Too bad, it would be nice if they did E commerce to the public.

 

I've bought from them several times before, and don't mind picking up parts for folks here if they need them. Just PM me and we can work something out.

 

I feel the love.

 

S'what you get for living on the wrong coast. Good thing there's cross country shipping!
