Zbar pivot bracket
Does anyone have pics of the pivot ball and bracket that mounts to the block? I'm looking for the correct one for my 1968 2wd. Mine looks weird and is very sloppy. It has a large bushing that fills the gap between the bracket to the zbar. It sits kind of low not at a 90* angle to the pivot point on the frame. My zbar may be incorrect also...no zerk fitting. Any pics or info would be greatly appreciated. This site has helped enourmously on my swap. Thanks in advance

Re: Zbar pivot bracket
yes it's to a small block. I keep thinking maybe the zbar is too short. That's why they put a spacer in there. I mean the spacer I have is about an inch thick.

Here is a picture of the ball and the rag joint:
http://satellitehead.com/images/68ch...kage%20012.jpg I don't have a picture of hit hooked up readily available, but I bet you can find one in my gallery below - look at the "Inline Engine Swap" gallery (link to my gallery list: http://satellitehead.com/gallery ) in the and also any of the inline engine removal galleries. Might take a while, but I have a TON of pictures of this kind of stuff from my own experiences with building/rebuilding my truck....
