Early 17-30 differences

Hello to all well afters many years of being a Bonanza owner I decided to try a Bellanca Viking. This is a great airplane, but my model being a early model is sort of a pain to get parts for and figure out how it hooks up.My 17-30 is a 69' model built in 68'. this is the year model that from what I'm told Incorporated many changes, which makes it unfortunate for me. That's why I'm here asking everyone or anyone for help. Here goes, the issue at hand is in the nose gear up and down limit switches. This must be the same for the 260 models I think. Where do the limit switches mount ? On the reaction link to the rear of the link there are adjustment bolts which adjust the limits of the switches, but I guess I'm lacking the bracket in which the switches mount too. Can anyone please help pics would be great.
 
Mine is a 1968, should be identical to yours. I have pure hydraulic gear like the 260's. It's great, real simple. If you still need photos of the nose gear or other stuff let me know by posting here. I've only had mine since May of this year so I am a Bellanca novice, but I'll do what I can for you.
 
Wow someone thats willing to help you are a heaven sent. Yes pics would be great. Also might a pic of the firewall cannon plug be too much to ask for?
 
email me so I have your email to reply to. I have some archived photos I could send over the weekend. Could probably take a few of the nose gear for you this weekend also. I happen to be particularly fond of the early ones. Where are you located?
