Does anyone have a source for oleo pistons for a pre-war chief. I haven't been able to find a part number or the dimensions. Mine are junk. As soon as I can do this I can put the fuse on its wheels. desterate in s.c.
Thanks

Dave,
Can you take the old ones into the shop and have them make a set? I might have blueprints but having the print # sure would help.
Also David Rude is the expert at overhauling these and he might know more about these.
