INTERESTING FINDING

So it appears my new '72 C20 center link will work, I bought a C20 MOOG ES409LT inner tie rod and although the ball joint part is bigger the threaded rod is the same size and same length as the 71-72 C10 I also confirmed both the C10 and the C20 use the same adjustment sleeves and idler and pitman arms.

Rock Auto has a pretty cool website for research, so on occasion I toss them some love and order from them even if they are pricier than AMAZON

and more steering linkage parts - I may have ordered some extra outer C20 tie rod ends just to test fit them knowing they would not work with the C10 spindles, that's why I got them from AMAZON, no hassle returns

and I recon this was the final batch, once again from Rock Auto - Since they had a SALE on MOOG parts, even a blind squirrel finds a nut some times
