By chance, does anyone using this Center link/drag link know where it is manufactured?
It is a dropped version made to clear deep oil pans.

It is sold by both Mancini part#MRE 1858015 and 440 Source part#2001175

My impression is that anything from 440 source that is made in the US, then MADE IN AMERICA is trumpeted in their catalog. Nothing wrong with that.
To be honest? If I needed a dropped center link, I'd give either one a try.

It's made overseas people. I ordered one to try. It should have some sought of solidness to it.
 
There is a lot of land overseas. Like to know what you think of it. I probably will buy one, mine kisses my oil pan.

Do you have a spare pair of tie rod ends to insert into those drag links to mimic a real tie rod?

My friends who know or remember more of this stuff then I will ever learn said the following:
Inserting a straight bolt may fool the naked eye because the link hole is tapered on one end and a straight bolt may move enough on that end to fool the measurements.
Now, in defense of what your photos show, a 1/2 inch difference for either the pitman arm or idler arm can present a problem, because even though you can adjust the tie rod sleeves in or out, the pitman and idler are stationary with the K- member and move to a certain degree in unison.

Just trying to break the case, and in case I am wrong, I will own up to that wrong.
