Transmission Linkage Arm
Hello to all
I have a 72 C10 with a Auto Trans. I have had it overhauled and come to a stop. The springs on the Transmission Linkage Arm are wore out. Does anyone know where I can pick them up? I tried the local autoparts and no cigar. Any Help greatly Apprecitiated Lewis

Re: Transmission Linkage Arm
TRY A GOOD NAPA STORE , OR ANY DECENT AUTO PARTS STORE THAT SELLS DORMAN FASTENERS.(I'VE GOT THEM THERE) JUST TAKE YOUR LINKAGE WITH YOU & FIND ONE THE RIGHT DIAMETER & CUT TO THE LENGTH YOU NEED.

Re: Transmission Linkage Arm
Our local Ace Hardware store carries a similar spring in their spring collection.

Re: Transmission Linkage Arm
I think you're missing the point.. I don't know of anyone who stocks that simple 40 year old, redally available 75 cent part.

Re: Transmission Linkage Arm

I would not hold my breath that someone will shelf the small springs and bolts required to keep the linkage arm in place. As a matter of fact, anything and everything is being reproduced. I just like to use the right parts instead of going to a hardware store to search if I dont have to. I know alot of C10 owners who prefer a aftermarket Tachometer to the Factory One and install it on the instrument panel by custom fitting it. I chose to ask who carries the parts and take it from there respectfully. Last edited by cobra1966; 06-25-2010 at 01:48 PM. |

Re: Transmission Linkage Arm
I would like to know what springs these are and where they go are are attached to. I'm not familiar with them.

Re: Transmission Linkage Arm
Page 133 of the new LMC catalog... http://www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/cb/full.aspx?Page=133
The spring is included with the shift linkage arm (part #32-4830). I had to buy a new arm because mine was completely wore out and the spring, washer, and retaining cotter pin were included. But I don't think the spring is available seperately. My local Ace Hardware has all the fasteners and springs I could ever want. Gary
