Run some conversion tie rod sleeves with 67-70 outers.
Then you can use 71-72 tie rods to connect to your center link.
Here’s the catch:
67-70 outers are LH thread.
So you will need to use 71-72 outers (rh thread) in the inner location.

Before I read this I had already ordered 71-72 inners from Moog and the conversion sleeves from CPP. The 71-72 tie rod is 11/16 compared to the 5/8 67-70, but the ball joint is hardly bigger and fits sloppy in my center link, just less sloppy than the 67-70 ones. My idler and pitman arm fit correctly in the center link and just eyeballing it I can tell the size difference.
Is there a difference between 71-72 outers vs inners ball joint size? Or are 73+ tie rods different than 71-72? Looks like they have different part numbers on Moog's website.. Either way I need an outer to run in the inner location.
