KKERGALL Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 There are different styles, old style two brackets with shoulder pin then couple different after that.

Vladislav Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 1988 should have a steel hinge plate with a tube welded to put 3/4" bolt is as an axle and a bolled "rod end" which comes into the chassis bracket with its stud. From my experience I suppose you will need a new Grade 5 bolt of the required length with nut since it usually gets worn in the middle and that ball joint which is known as Aurora bearing and could be found. My copybook tells me I looked for Aurora MM-12 with 3/4 bore and 3/4-16 RH thread (and that's right) but I remember I ended up with a similar part (or exactly that one?) which had a grease nippel as an option.
