I guess I should elaborate a little more on my steering setup since I kinda went the unconventional route. I kept my '66 front crossmember as you saw, and I took the factory '72 C-10 spindles & control arms. I also kept the '66 centerlink because it was already removed & in good shape. To do this I will have to move the new '66 outer tie rods (5/8" LH thread) to the inner location, and the '72 outer tie rods (11/16" RH thread) will be in the outer location. The POL conversion tie rod sleeves will mate the two together (Part # HPAS6570):

BTW, thanks to forum member "
lolife99" (Keith) for helping me with this configuration
I also have a new '72 pitman arm, & the new idler is for a '66. It's a mix/match between the two years, which could be confusing for some folks. However, I made sure to document what I have & hopefully won't be needing to replace any of this stuff for a very, very long time (if ever).
