Help with 63' steering link part decisions please. =-)

[DodgyDan]

Hi all,

As the post says, I'm quite confused as to which parts I need to buy to finish my v8 conversion in my 63'.

I've found the below, I think the pitman is much more dipped than my current but I am having troubles deciding if the idler arm is correct or not.

*Edit-- I have the centerlink I need

Pitman Arm -- ?

Idler Arm -- ?

Any feedback or direction to correct parts is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

you need the drop centerlink

you need the drop centerlink

I have that. I need to change the pitman and stabalizer bar to drop more also. My dad has a 66' with factory 273 4 speed and his pitman for sure drops much further than my 63' /6's

The pitman I linked looks correct (I think), the one on my /6 currently looks much less bent.

The pitman and idler arms are all the same from '62-6 regardless of engine size and P/S or no P/S.

Amazing! Thanks for clarifying that for me and that's why I was so confused! =)
