I bought an entire truck to fix another, both 1960 K10 types, but I am now finding out I am still missing one important component.

Its the linkage between the steering arm and the arm on the left front spindle on a 1960 K10. Its just missing from the truck that had the left front tie rod end fail, and the truck I bought, someone cobbled up a linkage from a power steering unit they added from another 60-66 truck.

Anyone know any thing about the part number or what other years will work. I included a couple of shots of an original. The one that came on the truck I bought actually has a ball type joint welded on to it, both ends.

Hope to find an original type.

The one in the last photo appears to be a custom built one, and appears to have ball joint type end, unlike the original. I am not above fabricating one if its going to be that hard to find an original.

Thanks.
