Well the seller and the shop both did not inform me it was a earlier model beam:( Now that I am making sure it is completely road worthy I find out the late model tie rod ends i purchased don't fit the early steering box. So my question to the list is should I go out and find a later steering box and swap it back out or do I just cut my losses with the tie rods and purchase some early ones. What I really want to know is, is a early steering box as good as a late model one. did they improve do I have a down side on running a early box on my car.
