I have a 58 pickup that I need a distributor for. Mine wobbles while engine is running. It has a stock flathead six. Not sure what size. Can anyone recommend any sources, or rebuilders(good one's)? Will any other years interchange? Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks, Walt

The distributor shaft is bent.If careful you can straightn it.If your engine is like the Chrysler and Desoto engines you have to rotate the crankshaft to a certain place so you don't bend the dist.shaft anymore when you remove it.People try and pry them out and bend them.
