Don Jr. Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Hi, I found a drag link in the back seat of the Touring we are restoring. It is missing the guts on each end. I tried Model A ford parts and they fit in the ends but the springs come up too short. Looks like each end has a different length for the parts to fit in. Is this correct? Also the full length of the link is 27 3/4 inches end to end. Is this the correct one for the 21 touring? Trying to secure parts and want to be sure I am rebuilding it correctly. Looking at a parts book it appears there are long springs on each end and the inside cups have tails that fit into tube to secure it. Thanks for any help on this, Don.

Spinneyhill Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Do those drag link ends disassemble for repair? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Jr. Posted June 17, 2019 Author Share Posted June 17, 2019 Yes! The drag link is hollow with grease fittings at each end. The parts install from the ends. Just do not know if the drag link I have is correct or not. Found a couple more in the back seat along with the one I believe is correct for the Dodge. Will try rare parts as you suggested. Thanks.

Don Jr. Posted June 17, 2019 Author Share Posted June 17, 2019 Hi, yes the ends come apart. Adjustable plug on ends then spring and hardened cup. Ball fits in then other hardened cup a spring . Parts I have do not make the ball tight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
