I got ripped off when i bought mine. The first one broke on me when I was torquing the bolt that one was $100,and i was luckily able to find another one for $50.

Is this the "aluminum" POS?

It's not aluminum. It's some crappy alloy that is really brittle, and is barely weldable. I took mine to a welding shop, and they managed to get it back into one piece with the aid of a high end TIG and I think magnesium filler. I am just waiting for it to fail again and I will be looking for a replacement too.

You sure about that, Ed?

I just looked on the locator, and...

There's another dealer that shows F3TZ7210A

I usually don't post who has a particular obsolete part if only one is available.

I P/M or email the info.

There a chance someone else might need the same part, and will grab it...leaving the person that requested it, out in the cold.

I didnt think to be able to bring mine to a weld shop, when i saw that the material was like freakin sand, i figured to just give up, everything about them is brittle. Even the vice with bolt set up to tighten the handle that broke on me too

Are you ready for this?

I just tried calling the dealer to see if they still have it.

The parts department is CLOSED FOR LUNCH!

35 years in the biz, I never heard of anyone closing for lunch!

You were right, no tickee, no stockee.

I told the pinhead to remove it from his inventory!

No wonder this place has so much old crap.

They go to lunch, closing the doors in the process, while ppl come to buy parts during their lunch break.

I went there back in the late 1970's looking for obsolete parts. The grouchy old SOB of a parts manager said he didn't have anything.

Yeah right. Just behind him on the shelf was this: B8E-13450-A = 1958 EDSEL tail light lens that had been obsolete for over 10 years!

Can you post a pic of the one you have? Next time I go to the local pick & pull I'll keep an eye out for one. What transfer case & tranny do you have?

Dont man to high jack a tread but if I need a part number besides a dealer how do I find it.
I have a 1990 f350 crewcab 4x4. I broke the piece that connects the selector rod to the transfercase it looks to be made of aluminum and ford said its obsolete and couldnt give me a part number.
