M 101 help

[Nick]

I have a 1952 M101. I am in need of some parts and have been searching high and low. I even asked on the Power Wagon Forum for another forum to help me. I was given this site. I hope it works out.

First: I am looking to replace the shocks. I have been to Pep Boys, Kragen and a few little places around town. No one seems to have anything close. Where can I get shocks??

Second: I need the swivle for the front leg that attaches to the tounge for when the trailer is unhooked.

Third: I need the rear jack leg stand.

I am very close to finishing this trailer, then I will go back to concentrating on my '48 FFPW. I will be getting the bed LineX'ed and paint to match the truck. Any help anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Check Saturn Surplus for the rear stabilizer leg.

Give them a call for some of the other items, they may have them but just don't have them listed on the web site.

Let's see your trailer and your Power Wagon! We love Mopars!

I may have used parts, if you don't find some closer. Let me know and I'll check this weekend. Wayne

Is there a correct timeframe for the use of the term Mopar? When was the term "MOPAR" first used?

edit.. I found this; http://www.1962to1965mopar.ornocar.com/whatismopar.html

Can you find any of the Mopar logos on Military vehicles?

Well then define "Military vehicles"
M-Series, tactical vehicje or anything the military bought and used? Wayne[/quote]

RE: question

Yes, M-series is what I meant.(like before 1970)

RE: question

I doubt you will find the Mopar logo, but you will find "DCPD" which is the "Dodge, Chrysler, Plynouth, DeSoto" logo.

According to your source the word MorPar was only used for parts but was general accepted when speaking of any of the Chrysler Corporation vehicles, so would not have been used as a logo on the vehicle itself. Your mileage may vary. Wayne

RE: question

So are any of these logo's on early M-series vehicles? When I say used on, I mean like on the oil filter housings( or other not so noticed parts) or cast into the head or like that. Not as a fender emblem or such.
