Any one know if Moog or anyone else makes a tie rod ends that have a straight shank instead of the tapered shank to replace the ball ends on the drag link and the tie rod on a 53 chevy pick up?

The upgrade tie rod ends and drag link I just installed in my 54-1/2 ton were all straight shank. The supplier was Classic Parts. (Old Chevy Duty)

Hope this helps.

Try these part numbers:
LH Tie Rod GM# 374227 or Moog ES29L female thread
RH Tie Rod GM# 374226 or Moog ES29R female thread


Always get a 2nd opinion, especially if I am the source of the 1st opinion.

Aren't all y'all talking about 1/2 tons? Didn't I read that there's a difference and that they won't work on 3600's?
