This is the linkage above the actuating mode selector. Looks like I am missing a few pieces? If you can lend some insight, I would be thankful

According to the diagram, it looks like the one on the left should be oriented the opposite way of where it's sitting. Other than that, looks complete to me.

After a little more research the proper terminology is air actuator linkage. From what I seen off the Web it looks like all the pieces are there

The above image was lifted on the net...

Upon further investigation one side of the silver shaft that the linkage has been disconnected from has a flat spot on it. This flat spot rotates from approximately the 12 o'clock position to the 6 o'clock position. It also moves from left to right approximately 1/2 inch.
Once I get the orientation correct the left side of the linkage will slide back on to the silver shaft. But with it moving back-and-forth that half inch it could be a little tricky. What I don't understand is what SECURES THE LINKAGE TO THE SHAFT.

What a shame..... You would think that someone else's ran into this problem. And more than once I've heard guys on this board claim that they're certified mechanics. And still no answer to this riddle. There is no doubt that I will get that linkage back on to the shaft securing it well we'll see

Lighten up Francis! Not everyone has time to read every post. I had this problem with my '90. A simple fix is to get every thing aligned correctly and then slide the actuator arm off from the shaft and add a couple of drops of Loctite shaft lock or a couple of drops of epoxy in the arms hole. Then while the "glue" is still wet take a small (2oz) ball peen hammer a give it a tap to seat it and you should be good to go.

Francis....you have me mistaken for your boyfriend "babycakes"

Thanks for the advice, sounds logical

I don't think anything technically secures it to the arm, it just looks like it's supposed to be pressed in there and it's complete. I could be wrong though.

As already stated, you could get a little shaft seal in there if it worries you. But I doubt you'll have any issues with it.
