The right center link is thicker then the one in it, I changed everything to 67 firebird parts and they worked fine. After a lot of research I found that the steering parts on it were from an Apollo,Ventura type set up, the correct 67 parts bolted right up from the spindles. I replaced the inner,outer tie rods,drag link,idler arm,and pitman arm. Now I'm going to rest the engine on the subframe to set the load and tighten all of it up. The body just got back from blasting and there was a little more rot then I thought,but that's what the body guys are for. Thanks for the help guys.
