Cavebull, I installed the new tie rod ends on a threaded rod I had made. I use it for a adjustable drag link. I had NOS tie rod ends before and found one was bad. I bought two new ones from American Classis and found them to be about 1/2" or more longer then the NOS ends. I wouldn't be surprised if they need cut, I think over the years they combined some years and the parts became generic. Joe
