So where does one go for the Dana Kirkstall front end parts (bushing, tie rods etc)? Can get them through Spartan, but not for several months. I can even find any diagrams out there! It’s the good ol ifs 84 model that I think was a disaster from the get go!! Any help would be greatly appreciated as most heavy truck part places struggle with anything that isn’t big truck brands!

Mike,
Just for yours and our information, you should put the year/make/model/chassis/engine/trans etc., of the coach you're asking about along with your question. A good way to do this is to create a signature with all that info. That way, when you post or ask questions, it automatically appears with your post/question. You can do all this in your personal section or user CP.

My CC has Dana Kirkstall IFS axle (i.,e, spindle) but front end assembly is a Ridewell 284. There should be a manufacture label plate on the assembly. If it is a Ridewell IFS contact them they were very helpful when I need air bags. They sent me a diagram and parts list. Also I think the Dana Kirkstall is metric.

Another place to check is Henderson's Line-Up in Grants Pass Oregon. They may sell the parts you need.
