Outer tie rod ends for '69 and '70 GPs. Any reasonably priced sources?
 
There was a post in March about outer tie rod ends on the GPs being different from the A-body cars. This was totally unexpected to me. I really expected the GP to share all the steering parts with the A-body cars, but that is not a fact. The outer tie rod ends are different. Does anyone have a good source, or do I have to bite the bullet and get them from Kanter, Rare Parts, OPGI, or AMES for a hefty premium?

IIRC all A / G body cars went to larger tie rod ends in 1970

Apparently, that change happened after the 1970 model year since, at least for the GP, the '69 and '70 shared the same inner and outer tie rod ends based on the specifications and part numbers.
