Exactly! My memories are sparking now, I seem to remember that from years ago. I just checked and sure as poop stinks, they are different!
Ok, new plan coming, I thank you
SO MUCH nvrdone for bringing that to light!
I can't believe I don't remember this stuff.
How about these steering arms, what the heck are they? They look like the one with the one for the pitman arm built on to it. But they are later? They have regular tie rod ends on it them. And notice they are under the arm unlike the other with the ball on the top for the tie rod. That second photo on the right is the older steering arm setting up on top of the newer one, they are exactly the same shape and bolt hole spacing.
So to put the car backing plates you need to drill a new hole, I seem to remember this. It looks like one spacer on the top just like it was on the passenger car works, but then the steering arm doesn't go behind it like it did on the car and two spacers will work there.
