Mystery Pittman Arm

I have a 1964 GMC Pickup that, I've heard, was made in Canada. I need a new Pittman Arm, but it seems that the 64' Chevy Pittman Arms are different than the GMC's, which are "L" shaped. Any suggestions on where I can find one?

Re: Mystery Pittman Arm

That is the idler arm not a Pitman arm. The
Pitman arm is on the sector shaft coming out of the steering box.
