Working on getting a tie rod end that is 9/16 female threaded and 9/16 straight hole, heim style. I have a 9/16 straight hole in my steering arm. Can't seem to find a supplier. They all go from 1/2 to 5/8. Anybody have a place or do I head to the machine shop?
thanks
Jim

Not sure if this addresses your problem, but what about just making a little sleeve to go over the tie rod male to take up the slack? Once you torque it down it doesn't move.

If I missed the point...my regrets.
