This assures less slop in the linkage. We have seen certain installs where the adjusting rod is angled going to the fork/bell housing. The differences are due to the mounting position of tab(on the Z-bar)that the adjusting rod goes into.

It's not keyed, but never had any problem. Just use a little EP High pressure grease. Works great. Better than that crummy plastic washer insert, which always breaks. MB

It may have been a truck part originally, but it is listed in the 70-71 Passenger Car Parts Catalog as a 71 B & E-Body part. It looks like it replaced the washer and rubber piece in 71. The 72 - 74 parts books list it for A, B & E-Bodies. P/N 2401740 - Release fork adjusting swivel.
