After putting a better servo I noticed a noise like the spur gear was stripping but couldn't find the associated damage until I took a better look at the upper steering pushrod and discovered this

After I took this pic, I flipped the link and put it back on. A couple days later the screeching returned and I discovered this!

Well, I got to looking at the parts wall and spotted some of the rod ends in this bag

The gears in the old noggin got to turning and I found some other things to do some fabbing

These rod ends seemed to be the right shape and take 4-40 all-thread nicely too!

After doing a little guesstimating I came up with this

And here's the final product next to the replaced parts

Now for the installed pics "thumbsup"

Tested it after work and it's a big improvement, now I just need to reinforce the bellcrank/UCA mount on the front axle.........
