Default 4x4 Actuator

I was working on my s-10 blazer's 4x4 system and I removed the vacuum actuator but in the process I lost the clip that attaches the front differential cable to the vacuum actuator . I can not find anyone who sells just the clip. Does anyone have a spare that I could buy or know where I can buy one? Thanks

Or I could buy a broken actuator with the clip on it.

Dunno if it would work, but for a temp fix till you could find another clip....use a large safety pin stuck thru the hole and clipped back to itself then shove the cable in and see if it'll lock. Like I said, sounds ghetto. But it may work temporarily for ya.

Like lucky stated, just go to a few local junk yards to see who has any blazers or jimmys in their yard. I would just take the whole actuator. Nothing wrong with having a spare.
