1961 Econoline Truck information?

I have a 1961 Econoline Truck and am looking for information about the rear axle. Any help with decoding the VIN plate is appreciated. I do have this much information. Also, I'm trying to find a source for a new drag link besides RockAuto. I have heard of some folks fabricating one. If so, does any one have parts list for this modification?

E10TH195668
E10 - Econoline Pickup
T - L6 170 Engine
H - Lorian OH
195 - August 1961

I can't find much information on the rest of the plate.
W.B. - 090
Color - V
Model - E103
Trans - A
Axle - 01

Thanks
Joe
