The truck and I are in Port Townsend, Washington.  Thank you for asking.  Duffy

By the way, there is a truck engine and drive train available nearby at Discovery Bay Auto Wrecking.  Do not have the parts I need.

Sometimes you can take a bearing to a shop that specializes in bearings and have them match it up with a replacement . There is such a shop where I live . Rare Parts in Stockton California might be able to help with the drag link , they can be expensive though . Have you tried the usual sources ?  Roberts Motor Parts , Bernbaum Auto Parts , Vintage Power Wagons . Do you have a parts book that shows the part number ?

My book says for 1941 WF-32 ;  Drag link ;  tube part number 574501  ,  ball stud  51354 .  Available at Collectors Auto Supply , Blaine Wa . 98230  . Verify with them .

Thanks Jerry!  Will do on the drag link.  Now for the top steering shaft .bearing. Have a parts book.  Will look that up and check with said suppliers.

Unfortunately the steering gear column jacket bushing part no. 925 882-395 800 group 19-C is missing so we cannot get a copy.  Mechanic thinks he can make one out of and old king pin.  So do I need that whole part no or just the 882-395 portion?

[Jerry Roberts]

Duffy ,  The correct part number for the 1941 WF-32 column jacket bushing is 395800 . For trucks up to serial number 81365033 Detroit built or 86501901 L.A. built . That part is also shown at Collectors Auto Supply and also at Deception Pass Motor Parts , Anacortes , Wa . 98221

Duffy ,  Here is where I got my information :   Also I used the site ;  PartsVoice to search by part number . You might find a booklet like this on ebay .

Thanks Jerry.  You are awesome!! Funny the 395800 is in the numbers I have but not obvious.  There is a later section about variations. Here is my  parts manual.  Looks like it has your name on it! Thanks again,  Duf

@Jerry RobertsThanks again so much.  Just ordered the bushing from Collectors Auto Supply.  If I look right under the column part no. in my book our part numbers do match.  Have a good one!! Duffy
