It has 1 2 shank.
Tie rod end taper sizes.
Make sure to measure on the threads and not in between them.
M12 use 19mm spanner m10 use 17mm spanner.
What is the best way to figure our if it is a 7 or 10 degree taper.
Most are based on either a taper of 1 5 inches per foot or 2 inches per foot.
These dimensions are from lorrie s worn out drag link.
The most effective way to establish your tie rod end size is to see if either a 17mm or 19mm fits the nut this can respectively identify which nut size and hence which tie rod end is suited to your setup.
It s a standard 1 ton chevy sleeve that is 75 at the top of the taper and 68 on the bottom of the taper or small end of tie rod taper.
I am trying to figure out the taper of a tie rod end.
These are actually gm ton k v series tie rod ends used on 1976 1991 second generation vehicles.
Thanks justin sprbxr mar 15 2008.
The drag link ends es2026r and es2027l were used on gm and 1 ton k series vehicles and use a larger taper.
Especially when the item they are measuring is smaller than the size of their protractor.

A right hand rod threaded tie rod end with a large taper diameter of 724 a small taper diameter of 633 and a taper length of 735.
That is the easy answer it is measured in inches per foot and not by angle.
The pitman arm and steering arm may not be these precise dimensions but anything close to the above dimensions in bold face could be made to work.
The diameter of a tie rod s threaded end is pretty self explanatory just measure the diameter of the rod end that attaches the outer rod to the inner rod.
Tie rod length and end type this is the length of the tie rod end from the center of the joint end to the base of the threaded end.
