As long as I do both ends and the sleeve, I can swap up to the bigger setup, right? No problems with the fit of the tapered studs?

Correct. There should be no difference in the taper bolt. I made that modification on a '70 E with no problem.

Bolts right in. Often times the larger setup is less expensive than stock replacements. I guess the larger tie rod ends are higher volume units or something.

MAY have to shorten the sleeves to match the ones you're replacing (just eyeball them) and actually the more thread engagement you get the better as long as it'll let you adj for the slight toe in and other than that as said it bolts/fits perfect.

Is there noticeably less deflection when making the swap?


I want my fair share
