You don't need "rare parts" for that car. Off the shelf Moog parts that you buy from Summit or NAPA should work just fine.


Not when it comes to the big block pitman arm, trust me, I found out the hard way. Some applications list them as fitting but the sector shaft splines are "clocked" differently on the BB arms. It causes the center link to no longer be centered to the oil pan. In addition One has to screw the R tie rod ends all the way in and the left ones out to get the steering box centered beer


That sounds like a stupid design. Are you sure that is what you want to do with your car? I have a big block A body car and I used Moog parts right out of the catalog. I centered the tie rod ends like they should be and everything works just fine.
