It all depends on what inventory a particular supplier has at any time. I don't think that any of the larger suppliers knowingly sell crap but I have bought exactly that at times from all of them. You/I as the end-user have to make the ultimate call, inspect everything and if something doesn't seem right it's because it isn't... I wouldn't use a vertical link with corrosion on that inside corner, that's obviously where all of the stress is, I have seen several break there. Glen ps- check the fulcrum pin/hole to trunnion, have seen several repros not square/off center!!! -----Original Message----- From: Robert M.
