Who makes a good TO35 distributor cap?

Kevin W · Oct 11, 2013

Who makes a good distributor cap for these 35's? Just bought one off of ebay and the fit is so bad it can shift side to side and will hit the rotor inside. The old original one fit like a glove. This one is going in the trash and the old one is going back on till I find something better. Any one run in to this before? Thanks!

might try napa.

most all the supply parts houses are going to have cheap aftermarket parts.

might have to got back to (aroc, MF, white, gleaner,) whatever they are calling their company this week.
they might still have some old quality parts in stock.

last time I was in they have quality oil filter's for my 1957 TO-35 at a reasonable price.

Find one made by Standard Motor Products. Went through the same thing trying to find a cap for my old Cat forklift.

Standard Ignition, Echlin or Sorensen.

If you have a Napa or Oreillys close to you then either one can get you a quality distributor cap,rotor,points...etc... but be aware that either place usually has more than one grade of part so always tell them you want the best part.

Thanks for the replies. When I get to town I will have to give NAPA a try. Thought about ordering one off of this sight, and order there dust cap to. Figured the to should fit better as a matched set.
