"High Boy" applications: 1972/75 F250 4WD with 3.5M capacity front axle / 1976/77 F250 4WD / 1 available NOS, sent you a P/M with the source.

Is it broken where the pin goes through the ****? if so, that can be easily repaired with a piece of PVC pipe, otherwise the junkyard is your best bet for a used ****.
If your heart's set on a NOS **** JST Automotive in TN. has (1) 50 bucks.
These guys QU40256 Spicer Hub Dial also have a few NOS *****, again, 50 bucks.
The 12 dollar Dennis Carpenter NOS ***** have long since sold out.

I think that is a C8TZ-1A029-A which is the turn *** for the 68-72 dana 44. He needs the D2TZ-1A029-A like Bill stated. This one will not work for him. He has a dana 44HD.

Sorry ND, i know you have access to sources that i don't, so i wasn't sure if we were both referring to the same NOS dealer or not.

The pic below is pretty self explanatory, take a section of PVC, cement it in place, drill new holes for the cam pin.
