The knob on the old cable is some aftermarket goober knob. I don't see replacement thrift air knobs in any of the catalogs. Would I be OK in purchasing a repro wiper knob with the set screw fastener???
Appreciate all!!

I am not real familiar with the thrift set up. Is it a pull or twist function? My mental picture of a cable and a twist knob suggests the set screw might not hold. If pull, I think worth a try. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2013 Posts: 47 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2013 Posts: 47 | It's both. The knob pulls a cable to mechanically open a vent and it turns clockwise for low, med, hi blower.
Yes, I wonder about the set screw??? if it will hold or not.
Gee...... I wonder if a a good JB weld would hold it tight? | | | | | Joined: May 2007 Posts: 1,718 Moderator: 60-66 Trucks; North Eastern Bolters | | Moderator: 60-66 Trucks; North Eastern Bolters Joined: May 2007 Posts: 1,718 | Some sort of glue or JB weld worth a try. | | |
