Need radiator shutter control for 1972 Ford LN-900

Stumped again! I am looking for a radiator shutter control for a 1972 Ford LN-900. As you can see from the picture below, someone has tied this one open with a bolt and wire.

I just need the thermostat-like part that actuates the push-rod that opens and closes the radiator shutters. I believe the correct part number for my truck is DOHZ-8476-B, but I am unable to find it anywhere. Do I have the correct part for this application?

Truck is a 1972 LN-900 (Warranty No: R902VP52616) / 2 = Engine is a Detroit Diesel 6-71 426 cid

Part wanted: Water Operated Radiator Shutter Control



Thank you for your assistance!

Another place to check for a lot of air parts is Power Brake Sales in Sacramento,Sandy has a lot of old and obsolete parts on the shelf and at times rebuilds them,compressors,brake valves,shutter stats and cylinders plus they rebuild Hydrovacs and master cylinders.
