If not are the threaded ends where they attach to the adjusting sleaves? Everyone has been so helpful, gotta keep going back to the well for more.

Okay somebody else chime in and rain on my parade....j/k, thanks for the help guys!
That would have been good to know in the first post.

Do you have all the 1/2 ton steering linkage?
That's the best way to go since the outer tie rods are different.
I'm not sure about the thread size of the tie rod. Local parts store could help there.
Anyone else want to chime in?
