Swiching to '73-'76 drag link.....can I still use my '67 lower control arms???

[Dartgtx]

Hello all,

I know many have done this swap.  Here is my dilema.  I now have a '73 K frame modified to fit my 451 and I have the centerlink, manual steering gear, pitman and idler arms. 

The '73 joints all point toward the ground.  My '67 ball joints point toward the hood.  This would create a monstrous 'bump steer" issue.

SOOOO,  what is the fix???

Thanks in advance,

What spindles are you using, the 67s or 73s?

'67 spindles..........original 9" drum brake car, now wilwood kit for '67 drum spindles.

I know that the outer tie rod ends on the 73-up mount to the end of the ball joint from the under side and point up and I 99% sure that so do the 72 and older ones too.

Who are you asking that of?

I don't believe there is a difference in the lower ball joint besides the spacing of the spindle holes. The tie rods all angle downward to the outside.
