Backup light switch

[cj8er]

What company carries a backup light switch for a 1965 Ford 1-ton pickup truck with the T-18 trans? I've tried the junkyards, no luck.
Also need one for a 1981 Jeep CJ w/T-176 4speed manual trans. I yhave the wiring harness in both cases, just not the switch/sensor that goes in the transmission.

I would check with some local parts stores first. You may need to go to ford but I doubt it.

I assume these parts are obsolete, ie no longer available from the dealer. For the Ford, try Green sales in Cincinnati, Ohio 513-731-4775, or if you have the part No. 1-800-543-4959. Only use the 800# if you have the part#, that is their policy. Also get a copy of Hemmings Motor News available at magazine stores, a monthly publication That has ads for many dealers nationwide that specialize in old NOS (new old stock) or aftermarket parts.
