There is a Swap Meet part to the site (see top bar). Might consider listing items your looking for there.

Keep in mind that both ford and merc of these years used the SAME wishbone. That measurment does not have much meaning, unless you account for the Mercury adapter / extension that needs to be included with the wishbone. I believe you are probably looking for any Ford wishbone (of those years), AND the Merc adapter (4-in extension plate).
Other opinions?

Someone might chime in and define "those years". I'm sure of 42 to 48 for the wishbone. But, maybe 41?
Parts book, anyone? Should be an easy find.
