Original ball joint amd tie rod numbers
« on: November 22, 2014, 03:51:26 PM »
Has anyone done any research on first gen. Camaro front end part numbers?  I'm trying to piece together the front end of my
67 Z-28 but cannot find the original part numbers to the ball joints and tie rods.  I have come up with 4 or 5 different numbers
depending who I talk to.  I would be great to have a parts list for the complete front ends.

The only number in the 67 assembly manual is 9740569 for the upper ball joint with a 7800908 option for an upper ball joint.
There is not a number for the lower ball joint as well as the tie rods and idler arm.  The lower control arm was an assembly as well as the relay & tie rod assembly.  The individual part numbers are not given in the assembly manual.  I am looking for the original assembly line part numbers for the upper and lower ball joints, tie rods and tie rod sleeves, and idler arm.

We had boxes of NOS service suspension parts for our '67 Z/28 project of many years ago and none of the ball joints or tie rods looked same as production. Two different worlds, different suppliers.
Learning more and more about less and less...
