this info is not exactly complete cause i did it back in the 80's...i put in a 75 xmember but kept the original idler and centerlink...at the time my flaps had a TRW suspension parts book with a section that showed the dimensions of all the tie rod components....so found an inner tie rod end with the same taper and size as the 70 pickup and larger diameter as the 73 and up outer....think it was an oldsmobile part...iirc it was pretty long...so the sleeve that was the right diameter and length was from a vette...maybe if you still have a mom and pop parts house around they will have that book
