HELP! 73 TA inner tie rods don't fit
These 73's are a real parts challenge. The only inner tie rods I can find do not have a bend in them to clear the pitman and idler arms. The original tie rods had this bend (see the pictures below) Either a) it is necessary to bend the rods to fit, or b) Global West gave me bad information when I bought the parts. I returned them once but they said that these are the only parts indicated for a 73 TA.
 See where the tie rod will foul the pitman arm when I lower the car?  same with the idler arm  See the bend in the originals? Should I take these to a machine shop and have them bent?
