Center drag link

Does anyone sell a replacement center drag link for 73-87. I have been searching but can't find anything new or used. Thanks

MOOG ES2027L Drag Link and MOOG ES2026R Drag Link are the drag link ends, don't need to replace center link.

Re: Center drag link

I had to replace my center link even though it's supposed to be non wearable. Use and abuse will do that.

Re: Center drag link

I put qa1 coilover suspension on my 67 frame and it requires use of 73 up spindles, this being the reason for center link need. I want to use all 73 up linkage.

You'll need to find another used one. They don't make reproduction center links (I've never seen one in my years doing/modding suspensions of these trucks).

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: Center drag link

Thanks for replies and info. I was wanting to use all new parts but I guess I am on the hunt for a used one. Anybody have one?
