Detail Associates grab irons
Author: Atsf814

This may be an old topic so apologies if it is. Does Detail Associates still make the drop down modern grab irons? I believe the number was 2202?  If not any recommendations where to get something that replaces them? Everywhere I looked on line is sold out and can't find a Detail Associates website. Any and all replies appreciated. Working on an Athearn GP60M. 

                                                                                                 Thanks!

Tichy Train Group has them.

Detail Associates parts are harder and harder to find every day.

As fbe said go for the Tichy drop grab irons, part #3015. Cheaper than the DA parts too.

Tichy grabs are pretty good if you tune up the bends slightly.    BLMA/Atlas are also a good match.

Yep. https://ppw-aline.com/collections/freight-car-stirrup-sets.
A little pricey, but good quality. Their variety of stirrup steps is unmatched, and the parts are very durable.
