Drop spindle question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hello everyone,
I picked up a set of belltech's 3120 drop spindles real cheap last week. I have a 72 GMC 1/2 ton (2wd) and it would seem these are ment to fit that year chev/gm. My issue is when I went to install them my outer pitman (edit tie rod ends) arms were too small. I did a bit of digging and figured out I needed C20 pitman arms (tie rods). Does anyone know why this is? Is this typical? I just want to make sure this isnt going to cause me issues down the road. Thank you -Matt
