I'm working on a 1967 MS-45 Crown. I need Ball Joints and Ties Rods. Does anybody have aftermarket part numbers handy or know of any cross over parts that work?

RockAuto.com doesn't show anything for the '67 but they have everything for the '68. Just by the pictures though it doesn't look like they are correct.

Thanks for any help on this.

What I would do is talk to a local shop that does a lot of these. I had to have mine done at a machine shop. They took one that was longer and machined it down so it would work.. Just take the old one off and they can match it up with one that will work.

Thanks for the tip on modifying - good idea.

I had seen the parts on crown-classics but they are pretty pricey! $100 for a ball joint plus shipping to the US gets expensive!

I have a new pair of the 68-71 joints I could probably send you for the price of shipping. Maybe worth a shot? Let me know...

Or at the least I can take some BIG pics and/or measurements of them if that would help... :tu:
