If you had access to a lathe, then I suppose you could make anything. I have not had to repair my bellcrank, but I remember a friend ordering the stuff from JC Whitney back in the day and making it work.

Perhaps Brian Asbury has the original Cdn kits. They came out around 1982 as I recall, were made by Mil-quip, and contained everything needed to replace the bellcrank. Only problem we had with the kits were that the center bolt was extremely hardened, and we could not drill it out for the modification. We merely would re-use the original.

Perhaps other problems you may have could be extremely sagged springs, or an axle that has sheared the center pin of the spring and moved forward. We had thousands of jeeps running with that long bellcrank, and had no problems.

Are both your tie rod tubes straight?
