'I am missing one of the original black knobs that go on top of the control sticks on my F24W46 ... anyone know where I might find one or two. I do have other options (like keeping the ugly knob that the last owner tried to install ...looks like a suicide knob off of an old john deere) but would prefer to keep things as original as possible.
 
Thanks

'Find  a place that sells replacement parts for the WW 2 Jeep. The gear shift knob is the same & screws right on. Buy two, so they both match & use a lock nut under it.

'That was probably "customization"...

So, rebuild customized parts, or bring it back to original black knob!

'Matt,

The knobs off the post war models were bench stock from the Willys Jeep, stick shift. They are still be made aftermarket, only problem is the thread size is next size up. You can adapt it with some effort.
