I have to be careful with buying from VPW, because some of their stuff is actually labeled as NOS, and some of it says "New". This designation obviously is referring to reproduction, and is almost assuredly imported from China or other place where sub-standard manufacturing could be expected. I bought one of their "New" drum support brackets and the thing was so badly cast that it wouldn't come close to fitting. And you have to be careful that you aren't ordering a part for an LU 2 or an LU 4, when you really want it for an MU 2. If you have an original MU 2 winch with it's original shift fork handle assembly, it's probably worth more than the truck. :) I don't think I have ever bought a Power Wagon that had the original shifter assembly. Now, when Clint decides to sell one of his trucks to me for, say, $5000, then I would have one. Ha
