Hi all,

I have a question about this set up from BCB. I have a 73 that I converted to front disk brakes from a 78 bronco. What pieces parts do I need to complete the Heim Joint Steering on my bronco?

Thanx Bob

Just finished one like that..narrowed '78 HP D44..and used the tapered fitting from Chuck for the first time rather than ream and fit bolts through the steering arm. I still hand-fitted the bolts in the steering arms though..but I think Chuck makes the taper adapters for those too? Very good way to go..

I confused myself. I went TRO and hand-fitted bolts in the knuckle arms. I used that cute BC adapter in the pitman arm. It sounds like you would have to go the same way.

If you want the retrain the tapered holes(a good idea) either use the tapered studs or one of the factory tie rod ends. The f150 ends will fit inder and some of the chevy ends fit. The EB tie rods can be used with the TRA bushings.
