Can't seem to find a steering sector shaft for 1971 CJ5

Welcome to my world. I have looked for the last year for my 1970 CJ-5 Ross steering box with the 15/16 sector shaft. The 15/16 sector shaft was not in circulation and couldn't find one anywhere. I had been talking to the crew at Kaiser Willys and they assure me they are in the process of producing them for early 2014. They should be in circulation soon. I am eagerly awaiting the sector shafts. If you can wait, they should be here soon.

 

If you have a V6 it is the same parts used on a M38A1. Try the military sites.

 

Ron Fitzpatrick may have something in stock... vintagejeeps.com

Might also try Debella's Jeep parts for nos parts.

 

Wow, this is a day for resurrecting old threads isn't it.

Bringing this back up. This is right sector shaft for the V6 and M38-A1 Ross box correct?

Is the M38-A1 sector shaft identical to the V6 shaft? Does anyone know the answer to a certainty?

 

For those looking for a replacement Ross V6 sector shaft, there is one listed on ebay that ends Sept 28. It is not mine, and I have no affiliation- just passing along the listing. See ebay #191340830163.
This is listed as part number 938194 which I believe is correct for the V6 application. Not sure if it is new or used- ask questions and do your homework! Could be new or could be well used?

The M38-A1 steering is used in the V-6. Call the vendors that sell military parts

 

Has anyone tried this new KW part yet?

 

I wish you good luck, I a few years ago found, what I believe was the last one, I gave $250 for it, An was told it would be a year till new ones were in stock..the one I got was just the same as your looking at. it worked perfect!!!I pressed out an pressed in new bushings. the shaft fit perfictly!!!with no honing. The jeep drives great..worth every cent..

 

I have been following this thread for a while and hope to finally rebuild my 1966 steering gear this winter. I have located several of these sector shafts by using the 2 part numbers938194 and 807478 (for the M38A1). My questions are:
1.) Are these 2 interchangeable?
2.) Where can one find the sector shaft pins individually?
3.) Are the pins all the same with this and the other early CJ jeeps as I have several MB/GPW ross steering sets
Thanks in advance

Mcruff, Did you ever get any made up? Thanks

I confirmed that the m38a1 and cj5 66-71 sector shafts are the same by asking KaiserWillys what the difference between their part#938194k for the m38a1 and part#938194ka for the cj5 66-71 was? They replied that they were the same, just a interchange number difference. FYI-They are both 5-7/8 long, 15/16 diameter, and the pins are 2" on center.
