Mike, If no one has responded positively to your request, I may be able
to dig one up or tell you where you could certainly find one. Part of the
deal of my moving out to go to college was that I clean up my veritable
warehouse of English car parts, but I still may have some vertical links
left over. The problem you speak of is common. One handy tip; if you
find a vertical link that you think will work, you can check its
alignment out of the car by holding the brass trunnion firmly, and
rotating the v-link on its trunnion threads. The axis of rotation should
run into the center of the ball joint hole on the top of the v-link casting.
