Increase quantity to the number of sleeves you are in need of.
NEW! Improved design! These CNC machined weld-in tapered sleeves can be used to fix wallowed out tie rod end holes in Ford steering knuckles, or to convert a knuckle, steering arm or pitman arm to fit common Ford tie rod ends. Works with years 1985-1997 using a factory tie rod or Moog DS1071 and ES3009r end.
Specifications:
Taper 0.710" Major 0.595" Minor 1" OD, 1.120" OAL
Made in the USA from 1020 DOM Steel bar. These specs are based on F-350 pitman, knuckle taper. F-250/F-150 are smaller taper and will not fit the taper sleeves.
Instructions:
The basics: To install, drill hole out to 1" OD. Press in, then weld in.
Preferably, a mill is used to machine the hole to the correct size, minus a couple thousandths for a interference fit. Freeze the sleeve and heat the knuckle, drop sleeve in place, wait for science to do its thing. Next, heat the knuckle and tig weld sleeves in place. Let cool.

After reading the description we expected them to be a little more sturdy and not feel so cheap, but they do the job
This kit is awesome. Good quality hinges and striker. No more sag in my door!
Great quality, fast shipping, fixed my brake light issue as well!
It’s a great product with the exception of the hardware. The kit installed easy no fabrication but the hardware bag came with so many different random bolts and screws no 2 bolts were the same except for the lower mounting bolts. For the price I do wish it came with mirrors but overall excellent design and quality
The only thing I would change is to have a stronger detent. The other is I had to red lock tight the nut because the swing kept getting loose.
Looks great , easy install and gives that little custom look to the bronco.
Delivery had no issues and it came packaged nice with all hardware.
Thanks OBS u dudes really filled another solution!
Quick install, and the provided metal template makes this a breeze. I would just add that drilling a 15/64 sized hole is large enough to fit the bottom bolts through. I appreciate the quality parts yall provide for us OBS guys.
Looks amazing
Couldn’t wait to install my brake lines on my OBS ford with super duty axles. They went right on, no problems, and look great.
I loved how simple they made this kit to install and how it incorporates the cooler mounts too. Super clean and straightforward.
