Default 1932 Fordor PArts Applications

I'm looking into purchasing new running board covers and rear spring shackles for my 32 Fordor. My supplier has both parts, but they do not include the sedans. All of the roadsters, phaetons, convertibles etc are listed, but not the tudors or fordors? Anybody know a reason why this would be?

Thanks Al

The running board covers and the rear shackles are the same for all body styles. The repo shackles I installed had the rubber inserts fail quickly. I bought some hot rod shackles that use the plastic bushings. I thru away the plastic bushings and installed Oilite bronze bushings. Much better

Lack of knowledge or laziness on the part of those who make up the listings. You see it in some for sale listings here and on eBay also, perhaps to impart some uniqueness and justify a higher price.

Thanks for your quick inputs guys. I'll send you the bill if they don't fit. :-)
