Thank you Jim, this is really a help. I am going to give these a try. I appreciate the offer, I do have the original maintenance manual but appreciate your offer.

Thank you Jim, you may have saved me the expense and disappointment if this did not solve the problem. Mine has much more play then a friend's 77 so I had his mechanic take a look at it and this was his diagnosis. I may compare his play to mine in the same configuration to confirm. I had it aligned by a local shop and asked them about the play and they said it was ok but I am not convinced. It may be hard these days to find someone who is familiar with the old center bellcrank and kingpin systems. Thanks and stay safe, hopefully I may run into you sometime at a show, I am in Roanoke.

Does anyone have a cross reference and a supplier for the power steering control valve for and 82 and earlier Avanti? Mine has too much play that transfers over to the steering. I hope everyone is doing well in this huge crisis we are all going through. I am social distancing by working on my Avanti alone which sure beats just sitting around watchin TV or reading. Thanks.

This is the identical part to the one in my 82 also.

Can someone suggest where to get carpet or cocoa floor mats for my 82 Avanti II? I ordered a set from one distributor but they were too large and did not have a slot for the floor mounted gas pedal. They did refund my purchase price when I sent a picture.
