Transfer Case Shift Linkage Question
I am finally putting my 1975 F-250 High Boy back together after a frame-off resto project. I somehow misplaced the linkage rod that connects the 4x4 shift lever to the t-case. The truck has a 390 with a NP 435 tranny and a divorced NP 205 t-case.
Can anyone who has a similar truck give me a measurement on the linkage rod so I can make one to the original specifications?
Your help is much appreciated!

Mine is 29" long from the 90 degree bend on the back where it connects to the transfer case to the end of the adjustment threads on the front where the clevis connects it to the shift lever. The clevis on the front for adjustment adds about another 1.5 inches, though.

I have a '76 F250 with the same engine/drivetrain. Mine is 30-1/4" long, center-to-center (center of pivot pin at the transfer case to the center of the clevis pin at the front). It's also adjustable at the front end, behind the clevis. Kind of a turnbuckle thing.
