One of the guys I race with has a early Maverick (ignition key in the dash) that he has raced since 73. The last time out, his steering center link broke. Now he`s trying to find another centerlink, but we were wondering whether all manual steering Mavericks used the same centerlink, & if there may be some other Ford model that will fit. (early Mavericks are not that plentiful in the wrecking yards these days.)

Thanks

The 1969 Falcon center link is the same; but the later more robust late 1970-1977 Maverick steering linkage will replace the 69 linkage as a unit. Idler arm, pitman arm, center link, etc.
