Name that part
Hey, you guys always like a good challenge right?
The part pictured below is valid for at least certain 1961-1966 F-N-NT-T100/1100. It is listed in the 1964-1972 MPC in both Illustration (base number) and Text (full part number) and 1957-1963 MPC in the same Illustration section as above. That's a full roll of paper towels next to it for scale.
What is the description and full part number? Notice this is a used part, but there are no holes drilled in it and no weld marks.
Not a bad guess, but, not quite right. Feel free to try again.
Here's the first hint
HINT #1: On trucks so equipped it would be inside the cab.

Looks like someone bobbed the top and extended it upward. The windows make it look a bit like a houseboat. Fancy.
The part does not belong to a camper or air conditioning.
HINT: Section 600

You college guys....lol. Either that or we were discussing this recently....
Torsion is in the description, yes.
Do you have the MPC for 1964-1972 to look up specifics? It's just 2 PDF files. One is the Illustrations and the other is the Text part numbers and in the first 100 pages is almost everything needed for decoding. They are rather large files that come on a CD and I copy them to my hard drive to make access a lot faster.

One of our older tractors has a seat suspension that uses a flat spring similar to what you have pictured. Lately I have been trying to dig up a suspension seat for my '66 and have been carousing through the seat section of the MPC. When you said section 600, it clicked.

Swoosh - The official way to get it would be from this web site. I think I picked up all these discs except the one Pantera disc, anything Lincoln/Mercury and the 1980 and newer stuff so far, but I might get them at some point.

The 1960-1964 or 1965-1972 Ford Car CD came in handy the other day as I was researching the Ranger console and in the Truck MPC it only lists some base numbers for a couple of parts I was interested in and by going to the Car MPC I was able to find the info under the Falcon of the era.

The original patent for these seats was filed in 1960. Note the name of the company, it is a familiar one. There are 4 fairly detailed images to open, too.
