It appears so. I have the COE linkage (which is different) and my COE is the short 101" wheelbase, so I don't have the intermediate bracket or bellcrank (4173M on conventional trucks, 4174M on the COEs). I just have one rod (either 4135 or 4136, off-hand not certain). You could make it one rod on a longer truck but that might add vibration problems which could cause the rear axle to pop out of the desired gear.
