That sure looks like the rod I need. Which one of special-k’s rods y’all think is it?

If it isn't, it's very close. You need to get a measurement on the circled one. That will give you a better chance of getting it right.

Re: 3 spd shift linkages??

Here are all the measurements from left to right. I hooked the tape on the top end and measured to about center of mounting pin, meaning within 1/8"

Re: 3 spd shift linkages??

Been busy this week. I posted all mine to help figure out this problem as well as to get them identified. I'm not a parts dealer, just a long time 67-72 GM Truck enthusiast who sells off some parts from my stash. Can anyone help me out with identifying, and help others in the future who pull this thread up? Clearly, it can get confusing when these rods are found off the truck and mixed up.

This is all of the ones I’m confident enough to label. I’ll confirm the 1/R rod for V8(in green) once I receive it and can try it. The other 4 rods not identified I feel are either 4 bolt side cover trans, or may have been distorted over 50 years.(I have 3 I have tried to reshape to make work with no success). No clue what that longest over 30” rod would be for.

I think the middle rod in the labeled picture(the one with the big curve), is like one of the ones NewBayColony got from Husker. Maybe he can report if it fit his 4bolt

Thumbs up Re: 3 spd shift linkages??

68 all original I just got Sat with 3 speed on the tree.
Hope these help.
This truck was a 1 owner and as far as he could remember nothing had been changed on it.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Sorry it took so long to do this. The shorter one is the 2/3 linkage. I don't have the transmission in yet, won't be for awhile but it sure does look like I have the correct ones.
Big thanks to Husker Ron for digging these out and shipping them to me.
