    Does anyone know how long a stock Model A Drag Link is? I am mocking up a 30 Model A Chassis, with an F1 steering box mounted on top of the frame rail. I am using 32 spindles, and early tie rod ends so I would like to use a stock drag link with the early ends. I am currently estimating a measurement of about 21 1/2 inches spindle to pitman arm. How long is a stock drag link?? Thanks

    Just measured one. 21 1/2 center to center is right.

    There is a good bit of adjustment there, so I'm sure we're both right. Didn't mean to sound like I was disagreeing with the Kid.
