Hey guys i went to install my center steering link on my 69 superbee and the idler arm is an inch lower than the pitman arm. I had to put a new pitman arm my steering box cus the car never came with one. I bought the idler arm from moog. How would i tell if its the idler arm thats too long or the pitman arms too short. I dont have part numbers. Thanks

I'm having the opposite problem.. maybe we should swap parts! :icon_biggrin:

All kidding aside, you will probably have to measure the parts or take a pic so someone can help.
 
Thank you. I will try and get pics this week. Thanks. Hoping someone would have a part number for an idler arm for a 69 coronet
