Before I put in the MII front suspension, I made an adjustable drag link for my 51. I used two of the now available "new" style tie red ends and an old tie rod. It was a standard duty tie rod so the diameter was the same all the way across. I cut it to the proper length retaining the factory left hand threads. I purchase a thread die and threaded the other end and voila adjustable drag link. I drilled the pitman arm and knuckle linkage and made bushings for the tie rod ends. I used hardened flat washers top and bottom of the connection. Worked well for about 15k miles.
