Any help is appricated. I need one left hand thread and one right hand thread.
A = 3"
B = 5/16"
C = 5/8"
D = 11/16"
Any help on this would be appricated. I have no idea what these came off of in the first place.

If your having a new link made why stick with such a small TRE. The Moog ES150 is 3/4-16 and has the taper your looking for. The Moog #'s I posted above have the right taper and the wimpy 5/8. The Moog ES 150 have the right taper and a beefy 3/4. Spydertrax has links made to your spec with 3/4-16 ends and DOM tubing for ~80.00. The ES150 ends are 14.15ea from stockcarproducts.com
thats what I used on my toy worked out good. Broke 2 steering arm studs but never harmed the tie rods

Yeah I have been lazy/busy/broke. We didnt see it when I broke but I also broke the two front studs from my steering arm. That was an exciting and long drive home. It took me awhile to get around to extracting those studs out of the knuckle. Did you break the birfs because of your "welded dif"?

Es150 should be ok.....If I was gonna do it I would "upgrade" to the 7/8 tie-rod ends for the "heavy duty" factor.....about the same cost really........IMO.......:D :beer:

The 3/4 doesn't have all the PITA problems with finding $$ LH taps.
Were are you getting the 7/8 TREs for 15.00????
Sheit he was going to use 5/8 and 3/4 is a huge improvment. :bounce: :bounce2: :bounce:

No pain I have them ALL in my shop...:D As for the price only 7.00 more (each).... subtract that from the 80.00 "rod" and get a "rockstomper" tierod or hell I'll make him 1.....:D :beer: :beer:
