    Can anyone tell me the measurements of an original drag link?

    I have an original '32 axle, spindles and track rod, running a '34 steering box and pitman arm.

    Measurements from centre of ball stud on pitman arm to the same on the steering arm would be good, as well as length of original drag link.

    Thanks

    Many thanks, which confirms to me that the model A one is about 4" shorter!

    Now to find a '32 p***enger one here in the UK.

    You can cut and rethread a '28-34 draglink...this will also allow you to get steering properly on center if you use non-1932 spindles or steering. Only fly in the ointment is that you will have to get the odd die from an industrial supplier like MSC Industrial.
