Let me know if you have any other questions.

Mike is good, but his thinking is for a stock set up. I saw the one(s) from epay for $200. I have not had a chance to look at the Scout parts sources. Their prices are generally descent, unless you are looking for a quarter panel.... Then hold on to your wallet.

What about this GM?
I could fabricate something like this drag link to go in the top bearing on the passenger side.Attachment 3493
I would feel much safer with a factory built knuckle.
-
Scout parts.com has your knuckle for $250 and change. I.H. parts.com sells a conversion hi steer kit to move everything to the top of the knuckle for added clearance. At a quick glance, I saw a single hole, but am sure they would have a dual hole. Take a look at their design, and you could pattern yours to match if you chose to Fab your own.
-
That 2 hole must be obsolete from what I see.
-
Scoutparts did have one, 273.23 with shipping. As far as obsolete, it all depends on the geometry of your steering configuration. With the Saginaw mounted on the frame horn,. It works well, with descent road manners. Never had a case of the dreaded death wobble with that configuration. Now, I didn't rack up huge miles on it back then.

I found a pair (left and right side for $200) on EBay for $200 and I made a offer of $75 let’s see if he takes it👍👍👍

It is Christmas time and I don’t want to wait until the eve to Christmas shop for the Bride so with a day off I might go to Summit racing and buy her a grab bar or something nice for the project :)
How’s that sound? She’ll Love it Attachment 3496
That’s last year in Puerto Rico. :cool:

All I can say is that if she does appreciate the oh sh*t handle, she's a definite keeper.
I'll have to look to see if we have any pictures together. The long suffering misses runs from cameras.

Attachment 3497I think what I’m going to do is hook up the tie rod under the knuckle and run the drag link from the steering box to the top of the knuckle on the passenger side and use chrome-moly heim joints with stainless 5/8 bolts.
