Im going to pull the steering arm off and work on it that way as Larry said. I will also reclean the parts and measure them, maybe the silver cups as Jeff said are a little thicker?

Taking off the steering arms is ok, but not really the way I wanted to do the drag link either, guess i'll have to remove the pitman arm too. It just seems like that's a harder way to do this.

No, the Zerk fitting is not beyond the inside surface, I had thought that as a possibility too.

The worst part is when you paint all this stuff and you end up scratching it all trying to get it together. For $20, maybe i'll give the Bratton's kit a try too. We'll see, i'll keep you updated.
