    Does anyone sell these outright? I dont have a core, Kanter or Rare parts dont sell these outright.

    Also

    Is the 67-68 Wildcat center link the same as 68 Lesabre, I mean could I use a 68 wildcat center link in my car?

    THANKS

    68 part numbers guide shows different ## for LeSabre and Wildcat/Electra (so Wildcat and Electra are interchangable)

    Be aware that the numbers also differ for with or without power steering.

    Oh, thats not good. Well I might find an old worn one from around here somewhere.

    Is there a way to fix the loose joints on the center link?

    Could you have a bushing milled to fit? You could bore the link to fit the O.D.

    www.rareparts.com in California is the only company I know that remanufactures these rare items and you have to go through a retailer like an auto parts store.......I did this a few times for someone in Denmark and it was not cheap......think the center link was $220

    Yeah I contacted Rare Parts and they didnt have any in stock. Which auto parts stores sell these and can these parts be found on their websites?

    Im ready to pay 250$ for the item, seems difficult to find..
