Inner tie rod holes

Can anyone give me the hole measurements for the inner tie rods on a 70 drag link vs 71-72?

FWIW...I'm not sure what the diameter the holes are but they are a tappered fit. I believe all of the drag links (1/2 ton) on these trucks are the same unless you have the ram steering assist.

Yes they are tapered holes. The 67/70 are different than 71-72. I bought one that's supposed to be a 71 and I was gonna use the hole sizes to compare to the one I have before I started hunting for another one. It seems like the one I bought is actually a 70 with the smaller hole size

That's the hole size in the drag link or the tie rod thread sizes?

Thanks but the measurement I'm looking for is the size of these holes to know which one I have
