Ok I cut off the end of the arm on the ball joint that has the tapered hole for the outer tie rod drilled a hole the correct size for the treads of the tie rod, put the cut off piece under the arm with the new hole, installed the tie rod through the double stacked ball joint arm, just snug the nut, tack weld the pieces , remove tie rod & Tig, or Mig weld keeping the Ball joint cooled off with a wet rag, you may or may not have to remove some of the threaded end on the inner tie rod, doing this correct the bump steer a lot, tires wear was ok, later I got the Hotchkis geometry correction upper arms, that made it better, but you dont REALLY need to get them, it was good enough for most people with just the stock uppers, if you need to call me 281-744-3872,,,Charlie
