center drag link

[1971bluec10]

i have a 71 c10 that i got with the front steering and suspension already off.. i got it with the QA1 coilover kit which i installed and now putting the steering back together.

what should be the easiest part is having me second guess a lot as far as the geometry of how things go.

does the center link go a certain way? it looks like it should only go on one way..

does the inner tie rods go in from between the cross member and link or from the front side of the link?

is it easily able to determine a 67-70 link vs 71-72?
