It seems to me that I've seen the entire end of the front wishbone/radius ball available. As opposed to just the ball. Like the entire casting/forging. I've been searching the typical Model A parts places and no luck. If anyone knows, a link would be great. Or did I just dream this? Can't rule that out... robj
You likely saw a photo of one that had been separated from the rest of the ‘bone. They are a forging but I can’t see any demand for reproductions, so no, it’s unavailable.
I've sold several used; but good end forgings cut from original 'bones on ebay. Like the one in the attached picture. Maybe check to see if any others are listed.
Well, that settles it. It was all in a dream... Another quick question. Is there a stub that fits into the wishbone tube then welded to the tube? Thanks, robj
The end forging is **** welded to the tubes; probably using one of Ford's "lost to history" production process.
I feel like I’ve seen them as well but I really can’t remember where. And to be honest the memory is fuzzy enough that it may have just been some cleaned up original parts for sale. not exactly a hard part to find if you are in need.
Found what I was remembering! Carillos makes a 32-34 set up heres a link https://carrillocustoms.com/products/1932-ford-u-weld-kit-reproduction-wishbone it’s not model A but it may be close enough if he’d sell you just an end.
The Carrillo is for 32, which is wider if you are trying to keep the model A stock, which won't work. If you need a stock model A, I can dig one up for you that should be just fine to weld into your bones.
