I got it all through repco. Paid what they quoted. Never have to pay it again.

staff discount is quite rediculous, if you know someone who works there you can get stuff cheaper.

Describe the part that you call the "Steering Link" If it's what I think you mean then $100 is reasonable.

Ahhh, the drag link. It connects between the pitman arm [on the steering box] & the idler arm [on the opposite chassis rail] Is that it? Using non standard nomclamenture makes it difficult to know exactly what you mean at times.
These were impossible to get for quite a while & when they did show up they were priced much more highly that what you paid.
By comparison, $100 is a bargain.
