Hey everybody, does anyone have a part # or know where to find a sleeve that can allow you to use Heim joints on a tapered shaft? Saw this in another thread and it raised my curiosity.

Never seen that done. I know you can get tapered sleeves to put in the steering knuckle, so you can use heim joints for tie rod ends. Although all the ones I have seen are used in the off-road world and are rather large in size.

I wonder if that pitman arm isn't just a hack job or someone machined they're own sleeve.
