Default 4WD linkage

my four wheel linkage rod bent in half resulting in either 2WD or 4Low only.
has anyone else had to find one of these? its the small rod that just pops out at either end with an adjustment on it. i had gotten one from a 89 at a junkyard but it has different bends in it and the adjustment was seized on it. is there anywhere i can find a NEW one?

I would just heat it and bend it back to the original position.

its bent because it has been eaten away by the rust cancer that is caused by NY winters in which someone feels that a 2:1 inches of salt to inches of snow ratio is the best course of action on the road.

AHHHHH!! thats why. Yea I stay away from NY in the winter because of that. But then again CT over salts everything to. I have a rod from a 94 but IDK if its the same as a 2000.
