between a manual steering tie rod adjuster sleeve and a power steering tie rod adjuster sleeve?i'm collecting all my parts needed to replace my tie rod ends,ball joints,idler arm,roller bearings....etc.and this is the only thing that's got me baffled.the parts catalogs (brothers,lmc,paddock...etc.) have a seperate part #for the 67-68 years in our trucks if equipped w/ power steering or if equipped w/ manual steering.whats the difference? all it does is join the inner tie rod end w/ the outter tie rod end.....can't seem to make heads or tails w/ this. there is a big difference in price,though......almost $10 bucks more for a p/s application.hey when you got c/s payments you learn to do this stuff on a budget y'know? any idears?
