Trail Sight = " Handle " in the parts system

[wilmerfjohnson]

Hi! I visited my regular Ford Parts guy Fred yesterday with a laundry list of stuff for my Bronco. If you need a replacement trail sight, when you go to the parts dept ask for the "handle" - the service part name is different than the marketing description.

But what happen when I need a real handle

How did you already break your trail sight, is my question!

Handle for what, exactly?

Ha I didn't break it. I'm trying to get a bag of each type of the Bronco bolts so that I have spares when I drop one in the grass or strip the torx splines, or for when Ford decides it costs too much & switches to plain head fasteners. Parts dept is having trouble finding the Bronco bolts for the trail sight/handle. They told me that it is common for a part to have one name for marketing/sales, and a different name for the service part.

it'd probably be easier yet if we had the part number to hand them...
