72 bbswinger, what car were the sleeves originally from that you ordered?

Moog used to be top quality and I think they are as good as is available today. Not sure what year c body to use when purchasing but I would say 1970 would be a safe bet.

I purchased the stock sleeves and tie rods from rockauto. I was curious what the advantage of the solid adjusting sleeves would be. I'm thinking I should return the ones I purchased and go for the solid ones.
