Tie Rod Adjuster Sleeves

[MikeN]

I'm looking to replace the tie rod adjuster sleeves on my 64 C10 2WD with the double adjustable tubular units from CPP. CPP lists one part number for 1960-64 and a different part number for 65-66. I would have bet the farm they were all the same. Does anyone know what the difference is? I want to be careful to order the right ones because returns are a hassle.

I'm making the switch because I'm not happy with the quality of the standard sleeves I installed a few years ago from a local parts house.

Also interested in the reply to this one.

I was looking at parts to rebuild my 63 frontend and found that the tie rods are different for 63-64, the outer tie rod is shorter so the sleeve is longer.

Thanks! I figured it must be something like that.

I run a tie rod adjuster that my friend machined with RH and LH thread more than 20 years ago. I think you can get these from most of the suspension suppliers/retailers like Western Chassis, POL, CPP, etc.

A friend is working on a '63 Suburban and we figured out that 63-64 have around 8" sleeves , 65-66 are around 6" ? We're confused as well cause they're different than my '68.
