When I did my 73 I used all later Z28 stuff (76 and UP) This requires the use of
a Camaro Pitman Arm, but the rest is Moog. This setup has the equal length
Inner and Out Tie Rods. The only issue is that that the Steering wheel will not
center all the way, and requires a small Mod to the Turn Signal Cam wheel in the
column. All of this is in the archives, but the swap is not as easy as just changing
the parts if the end result requires a aligned Steering wheel, and for me it did.
Also I originally went for cost savings, but when I opened the China Tie Rods, I threw
them directly into the Garbage and bought all Moog. Don't compromise safety
and use good parts up front regardless of the system you decide on. Those Auto Zone
China Tie Rods looked dangerous when they were brand new, and most of them had the
grease fittings in the wrong place. Did the same thing with a brand new pair of
rear brake cylinders. The fit on the grease fitting threads were so bad, that you could
not bleed the system. They also found the garbage can.
