NiftyFifty Posted September 23, 2017 Report Share Posted September 23, 2017 Tie rod ends are not something to cheap out on...try Rockauto, but I pretty much only recommend the Moog branded ones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merle Coggins Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 Drag link ends are not replaceable. You must replace the drag link as a complete unit. Only the tie rod ends are replaceable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Oil Soup Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 I made a new drag link with replaceable tie rod ends, and now it is adjustable to center the steering wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've thought about doing that. Mine was centered good until I did the disc brake conversion. Now it's off a little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bergy Posted September 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2017 To oil soup. How did you make new center link? Did you use old ty rod? What did you use the for the ends-same ty rod ends used for the ty rod? Help is always appreciated.thanks Bergy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Oil Soup Posted September 29, 2017 Report Share Posted September 29, 2017 I got hold of a Ford tie rod shortened it and threaded the right side and did use the same ends. I also mounted it from the underside of the steering arm because I have a Sid's 3" dropped axle and needed to clear the springs and get it parallel to the tie rod and reduce the chance of bump steer.
