My local Chevy dealer ordered one for me about a month ago. It came from the factory. I got it in less than a week. I posted the part number for my '80 LUV in this forum.

That reminds me... When you do get a new one, you might want to reinforce it. There are quite a few posts on it.

thanks Robert for the mental nudge!

He's right. It was bed time last night when I posted before, and I was tired. Run bead welds down the sides and around the top of the standoff the clutch pedal swivels from to reinforce the spot welds. Plus I got small piece welded across the bottom of the standoff and welded to the bottom edge of the main bracket to eliminate twisting. But don't let it intrude past that inner edge into the inside of the bracket. Otherwise you'll play hell getting the brake pedal rehung inside. My old bracket cracked because of twisting.

The brake arm swings from the same bracket as the clutch swings from on my 80 LUV. It's a stamped out "U" channel with the brake in the middle and the clutch attached to the left side.
