eek! I lost my center link! Do you have an extra? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

uh oh..

sometime between dis-assembly two months ago and now I've managed to lose my steering center link. I can't find it any place.. ugh!! Don't you hate that?

Does anyone have an extra they'd be willing to part with? (I'll pay of course) It's for a 66 C10 2WD.

Or does any one know where to buy a new one? None of my parts books have one listed

and I dont see one on eBay either.

Thanks for your help!

Not sure what its worth.. And shipping cant be cheap... Well could send it in a tube i guess. What all do you need

I'm sure I have a few sitting around. I'm assuming this is for manual steering?

Hi,

I found this pic in another thread here.. All I need is the long center bar that connects the two inner tie rods together.

Yes, this is was originally for manual steering, but I am upgrading to power. I think the same bar is used.

Thanks everyone for the reply's, hit me up w/ a PM and shipping costs to 95747, or if your local where/when we can meet

I'll check my stuff and get back with tonight.

If you're upgrading to power steering, why not upgrade the steering linkage to the '73-'87 as well? That way tou won't need to get those tierod adapters. That is assuming you've upgraded to discs up front also.
