Now that all our trucks are 11+ years old, I think it would be a good idea to make a list of parts and #'s that you may need in the future. This list should be inclusive and contain hard to find misc parts and #'s
I know torsion bars are no longer available at dealers, and if you find them, they are old stock. Another one is transmission and engine dipstick tube O-rings.
Feel free to add anything you feel necessary and I will update the list.
It would be an in house list, since numbers are often changed. Yea wasn't talking about 3rd party or after market. Your looking for a FORD part number revision list....I think that's what you mean.
I would like one as well. There has to be one..somewhere.
Yea don't mess around with aftermarket cotter pins.
The last time I used one I ended up lost on some back road, stranded. I walked for 3 days and nights. Luckily I found a Sasquatch trail and was able to stock and kill him with a rubber glove. Provided sustenance for the rest of my journey. The only drinkable liquid I found was the acid rain that fell passing over Mount Olympus. After falling down and managing to lose 3 teeth and my left pinky toe somewhere in the Siberian desert, I was taken in by a group of wild Pygmies. They made me their Alter boy for the next 14 years before selling me off to the Canadian Cavalry. The righteous judgement they brought upon me allowed me to see the world in a whole new way. I managed to barter my freedom with the Calvery by offering to show them how to beat PacMan.
This ladies and gentleman, is why OEM Cotter pins are necessary.

Mann, I think I seen that movie? Cool adventure. Just think, if you used an OEM cotter key, you would have missed out on all that action.
I usually go to RA, they list all the old number crosses and you'll most likely find the part there now a days.
BUT, they don't have or carry everything. There's still those hard to find parts. There's also those discontinued parts. From there, you have to be lucky and search your *** off for someone carrying old stock or used, like a merchant or perhaps ebay.

Part #'s for old stock and hard to find parts.
