ok, just as the title sais.

i went to the local parts store and they just gave me there moog parts book. so i did a bit of reasurch and cameup with these. they are actually 1 ton not like theother part numbers floating around here.

DS1285-RH Connecting Tie rod end (the one the drag link connects to) Chevy 2000-1991 3500 HD
ES3185L-LH outer tie rod. (you would use two of these) Chevy 2000-1991 3500 HD
ES414R-RH Inner Tie rod end (Pitman arm side, has a bend in the tie rod and high mis-allignment) Ford F350 1979-1967

this is the stearing that i will be using. it is a true 1 ton and i will do a complete write up when i'm done. just thought i'd keep you all posted.

Lets see some pics I want to see if they are any bigger and what are the threads on them.

Crap I just bought the 7/8" x 18 tpi jam nuts and threaded inserts from Poison Spyder. I'm hoping they're the same OD, but I doubt it. Any opinions on whether there would be a benefit of going with the 1 ton stuff over the 3/4 ton? This will just be with 35s for a while.

You will be fine with the 3/4 stuff.....Kraqa is just on a quest for true 1 ton parts I think.

well, for some reason i can't find the specifications on the 1 ton TRE's. i will keep looking and keep you posted.

you will be fine with the 3/4 ton stuff. i am doing this for tech reasons because i think it is good to have true 1 ton stearing info on this board.

sorry to be an idiot- but this is like the 3rd 1 ton steering topic- good job on finding correct part numbers for true 1 ton- but my question is this- why the hell not just run good self lube heim's? they are strong, simple, pretty cost effective- the best part- you dont have to dick around with a $100 tapered reamer that you will only be guarenteed to use 4 times :roll:

Picked up the 3/4 ton stuff today and started reaming the passenger side TRE for the draglink TRE. I do realize that the 3/4 ton stuff should be plenty sufficient with 35s.

What specs are you looking for Kraqa? The thread diameter and tpi? I assume they use the same taper. I guess I'll have to wait for the writeup :mrgreen:
