51 Fordomatic torque converter hub needed

Does anyone have or know where I can locate the hub piece on a 51 Fordomatic torque converter? This would be the driver for the front pump. It seems that the 51 had a longer reach than later models. Mine had one of the ears found broken off when disassembled. Thanks...

Try Fatsco transmission in New Jersey.

They show a 52 and up online but I will call to see. Thanks

Jim, that hub will not fit up to an 8BA crank or an 8CM crank, the '51 and later 1BA and 1CM cranks have the larger recess machined to accept the O-Matic hub. That damage could have resulted from a previous mismatch.
