Herm the overdrive guy use to have stock on all the M38A1 handbrake linkage and parts. Also Ron at Ron Fitzpatrick jeep parts had some of the parts as does John at Midwest military.

Went to the hardware store and bought a few that would look and act correct. Returned the ones that didn't fill the bill
