Bob, The little 90 degree connector that you mentioned is really the problem with the links on the front axle, there is a ton of movement 1/8 side to side movement, where the 90 degree connector goes through the cast bracket on the axle and is bolted with a 5/8 bolt...is there a rubber shim in there or was that metal to metal, if it was metal o metal them the hole has alonganated (sp)itself on both sides.
There is a taper on the pins at least for the rear links, the front I am not sure as of yet.
I may have taken on more than i can handle with this project...lol I was board of building jeeps as that was too easy...lol
I am in need of a ton of little things,with the hardest forme being seat frames and a carb....and now mabey links...

ohwll it will all come out in the wash.
Thanks everone for you ideas and help.
Jason
