Shifter linkage

Does anyone make a "stock" replacement linkage kit? (72 c-10 AT) or is the universal kit a good choice? Thanks and this place is FULL of so much info

welcome to the board! I have never seen one new for sale. I think your options are to rebuild one or buy an aftermarket. I went with the lokar unit it saves space to run exhaust and eliminates allot of moving parts from the system, it does take a little adjustment to get rightbut for $50 it was way worth it.

Nobody makes a stock set-up. The lokar kit isn't bad but it has problems, first being that it's a "one-size-fits-all" application. The linkage isn't in the right geometry and the hardware is prone to come loose. I'm basing this on several installs in different vehicles. It's usable, but the original set-up works much better. If you can find a good used one on here that's the way to go, what you need to look for is metal-to-metal wear. I managed to find one that had been blasted and like new for about $30.
