Re: Crossover steering w/ leaf springs?

Duly noted.
I will have to work out the drag link. I think the Jeep and Chevy parts use the same taper angle but am not sure if parts are actually compatible. Though now that I think about it, tapered inserts are available for Jeep guys to use Chevy parts.
Bingo.
Drill a 3/4" hole in the upper steering arm of the WJ axle, tap in the tapered insert, weld the lip & use Chevy steering all the way through. One thread size on the drag link adjuster sleeve / bar & off the shelf, easily replaced wear items.
