61-68 Drag Link Availability

Post by 64D100Poly »

Does anybody know where I could get a drag link for my 64 D100? They had been produced by Centric and Moog, but it looks like they aren't made any more. I found one on Ebay for over $200, but I really don't have the money for it. The Moog part# was DS653, there are plenty of post-1968 ones though. The one on mine right know makes a really loud clunk every time I turn, being my truck is my main daily I'm kinda in a hurry to find one. :thinking

Thank you - LB

Made one for my W200 out of a pair of tie rod ends and a split tube. It took a LONG time digging through the Moog book to find two compatible parts (they aren't the same as yours). The rest of the solutions are usually spendy.

I found one on amazon that's "temporarily out of stock" that I pre-ordered. About a year ago I needed rear drums and couldn't find a single one ANYWHERE, had to get a pair from Budd Thorp. Now if you go on rock auto there in stock for $40. :banghead If amazon falls through on my order I'll let you know. :Thumbsup

Been there before, but it's the first time I've noticed the stock Perkins diesel. Boy would that be nice in a W300!
