Give Gary Wallace a try at;    http://earlychevyparts.com/

You could ask here in the classifieds but if Gary doesn't have them I would go to ebay and search.

Good luck and welcome to the VCCA site.

My reading of the 1929-41 Master Parts book says the cup shaped ball seats, springs, and end plugs, were the same parts for both the tie rods and drag links from 1930 through 1941.

The only thing that appears to be different for 1931 would be the tie rod spring seat, which you shouldn't need.

That said, I'm not seeing anything at the Filling Station in the way of rebuild kits.

What kit are you referring to?

Look for FS-148. It says drag-link/tie rod repair kit 1927-1959 cars and trucks.

Thanks Tiny

It still appears to me that the kit will work for the 1931 tie rods... EXCEPT for the spacers.

The cups, springs, and end caps, should be the same parts.

If your spacers are still in good shape, you should be good to go.

PS

You should be able to verify this by removing the parts from one end of the tie rod and one end of the drag link and compare the cups and springs.

@ole-olson    Thanks for the info.

The difference in 1930 & 1931 tie rod ends compared to earlier and later ones is the length of the expanded end. The 30-31 is shorter so requires a conical [aka: tapered] coil spring instead of a straight coil spring. (the coils go from large diameter to smaller that compress into each other) The available kits do not have the conical springs. There are spring suppliers that have those type of springs but they may not have the same strength as the originals. Mc Master Carr has some listed https://www.mcmaster.com/products/coil-springs/tight-space-compression-springs-1~~/ Not sure of the size and tension of the originals but there should be something close.

I do stand corrected.

That was right in front of my face, but I never read past the "1929-41 All".

My bad.

The cups and end caps will still be the same though.
