Factory tie rod end taper?

97strokerHD · Aug 4, 2016

Can anyone tell me what the factory tie rod end taper is for a 92-97 ball joint dana 60? Looking at buying tapered inserts and not sure which ones to get.

Kind of surprised no one has replied to this. Figured someone would know.

Could drill it out to a straight hole if you are running a heim (or equivalent). Nothing wrong with that. And keeps you from spending more money.

Honestly I'm not sure what you're asking for.

I bought some steel inserts from ruffstuff ^ specifically for these trucks and had my tie rod hole drilled out to accept a gm 1 ton tie rod. Works perfect.

the taper is usually 1.5" per foot same as chevys, the depth/size is different

Probably going to end up getting the ruff stuff tie rod kit but with an untapped drag link hole so I can ream that ro factory size and still run a factory drag link.
