Title: Fairbanks Morse Wheel contact H635X MT002
Post by: OlddManWithHO on September 10, 2018, 01:31:10 PM
Hi all,

    I've got an old split frame Fairbanks Morse Loco #928 that has one contact on a truck broken off so one side only has 3 wheels making contact with the rails.   Need a replacement.

    I'm assuming that this part number is OK to use, but seems to be out of stock.  H635X MT002.  Any other parts available for this loco?

Roger

If you can't find the contact, the complete truck assemply is available:

You can also bend the sides of Kadee #5 coupler centering springs out, then trim down to make a replacement pickup.
Something like this:
