I just finished talking with Chuck at Newell Parts. The Linkage Rods for the Nu-way Valves were fabricated at the factory from 2 rods by welding them together. He made it sound as if they were possibly unique to each coach. I had a problem with the linkage at the right rear and was able to repair it with some fuel hose and a little blacksmithing, I wanted to just replace both of them now but this may have to wait. I was able to get a new valve on it's way just for spare parts and should have it before Creede. I will most likely look at both sides again before the Creede Trip.
