New Drivers Side Steering Tie Rod Assemby – Part#: 642056

Q: Will this fit a 1952 M38A1? And is it for the driver’s side right? 

• A: Yes, this will work just fine.

Q: This is for a 1956 Willys, what part numbers should I look at for a drag link and right/left tie rods?

• A: It depends on what Willys you are working on. Please call us toll free, we can help you out with this.

Q: Does the tie rod have a torque spec? If I tighten it all the way down, the castle nut is below the hole for the cotter pin.

• A: You want enough not to grind on the ball but not enough to be loose or cause slop.

Q: What are you considering loose or slop? I can pick the end up and down (not enough to see, but I can hear it), with the castle nut screwed down far enough just to catch the cotter pin.

• A: You want a tight slip fit. It should not have play because it is too loose or grinding because it is too tight.

Q: Will this fit on a 1967 Jeepster C101?

• A: The Jeepster is different. Those are only available used.

Q: 1946 Willys CJ-2A. What part # do I need for the passenger drag link tie rod? 

• A: 642057 is the passenger side.

Q: I have a 46 Willys Jeep, what is everything I need to redo all the steering?

• A: Please call us toll free. We can go over all your options and quote you out.
