Dear Mike,

              Ah, indeed.  It is one of those quaint peculiarities of owning
an Italian car.   Fortunately, the virtues outweigh the vices--- I think.

                            Warmest regards,  Chuck Engles

Thanks all, sourced one with Steve Wilkinson yesterday.  It's actually a
forged piece and has not been remade in a quality manner so NOS is the only
source.  Strange that I would have one with bungled threads - no idea how
long it's been like that.

Mike,

 

Not a costly item, I would contact you favorite vendor and get one shipped.
Alternatively a good shop should be able to fabricate or weld new threaded
section onto your existing one.

   I had the car aligned today and the tech found that the threads on the
  driver's side forward lower rear suspension clevis bracket that the
  A-arm is bolted to and goes through the frame was partially stripped.
  Does anyone out there have one they can sell/send me?  Prepping for
  Reno and thought I was there but one more thing to fix after the
  steering rack.


  Thanks!
