I need the engine deck for a M-36 Jackson. I was told to purchase the appropriate parts from Asuka/Tasca. Which parts, from what kit do I need? I don't need the engine.

I've only seen individual part trees for sale on eBay a few times in the past.

You could go this route

Unfortunately, I have the Academy kit. You can order parts from Asuka.

As far as I know, Asuka never did an M36. The M4A3 engine deck would be the nearest, as it shared the same Ford engine, but the dimensions of the tank destroyer deck and the tank were not the same.
The new Academy M36 kit includes decks for the M36 and M36B2 (diesel) versions.

I found an etch set. Asuka shipping was $25.

You have to select the small packet, slow, shipping. It can take a few weeks.
