[B]ok so my 69 has a 73 - 87 disk conversionand I've bought 3 different kits to replace the entire front end , I finally got the right parts EXCEPT FOR THE IDLER ARM on one end it has a big ball joint if you will the other side is smaller I've tried with summit , jegs , classic industries and Lmc anyone have a clue as to where I can find the correct part ?
This is the only part number I've found on it
758

74x

Have looked at this thread? It is likely the answer is there.

I suggest doing a search for how to post pictures including the source for photos you are using. I'm sure every conceivable camera except Polaroid Instamatics have been documented.

imo your best bet is a local auto parts store. that way returning the wrong ones are a breeze.

when you say you ordered 3 different kits...were those online too or local auto stores?
