    i am getting the new parts installed and when i put the new housing and thermostat on the intake you can see the movement...yes there is a gasket https://www.youtube.com/shorts/WuFjGwz2aY8 should i just put some black rtv on the housing side to keep it from moving?

    getting a pic is not a issue but i know the center link i have is NOT like the pic you posted...the holes are over 45 degrees angled away ...not flat like your pic...so i need a centerlink from a 73+ that has the flat holes...no problem there..

    i wish flip was that easy...i discovered the pitman from the 73 will not bolt to the gearbox...only the 72...so i dont think i can use a 72 pitman on the steering link from a 73-76 due to angles...i could be way wrong...i dont have a problem buy a dif center link
