Brand new drag link.. 67-79 PS or manual F500-600

This is a confirmed part for F500-600..I have it in my hand. I compared it to my 67,73, 75,79 F500-600's..I cannot attest to F700 but I would bet its the same.. fits both power and manual steering and in my case both two and four wheel drive too.

Federal Mogul (moog) part number DS800

Cheapest source was Summit racing of all places... 77.00

https://www.summitracing.com/parts/m...SABEgJUIvD_BwE

It is substantially more beefy at by least 25 percent than the stock OEM part. It is also fully greasable and comes with new boots

In my case the one on my 1967 F600 had seen better days,, when I got it off it felt gritty and worn (and couldnt be greased)

Make that steering safe again..one part at a time.
I love it when stuff fits our trucks and is made even better...

I would post a picture but since Photo****et went pay I havent figured out a new free posting site yet. Open to suggestions

Thanks

Here.. try this for a pic

The OEM is the top one.. the beefier Moog one.. the bottom
