Hopefully you all know something about this an what I need.. I have a 65 mustang coupe that was originally a 6 cylinder car manual steering. Somewhere down the road it has a 302 stuffed in it. From what I can tell it has had Granada front spindles put on with 11" front disc brakes, I am assuming it has the Granada outer tierods to fit the spindles., The old 6 cylinder inner tierods,center link ,idler arm, pitman arm are the originals I pretty sure.. My question is do I need to swap everything over to a V-8 Mustang setup? If I use all mustang V-8 set are the outer tierods ends going to match the Granada spindles? If not can I use the tierod adapters? or still be able to use the Granada outer tierod ends. Any help would be greatly helpful. thanks a bunch Bob.
I installed Granada tierod ends, the adjustment sleeve is not right, for some reason it is just threading like a sleeve instead of working like a turnbuckle. .1 screws in while the other is screwing out.??????? Sitting here having coffee wondering if they would've used 2 outer tierods on the adjusters??? have to look this morning.

 

65 V8, 65 I6, 67 , and granada tie rod ends are all different.
Some adapters are available on the net.

I'm sure you already know, to get turn buckle effect one side must be RH threads and other LH threads.

Bump steer kits are available also.

 

You'll have weird steering until you get a 64-66 V8 pittman arm, idler arm, center link, inner tie rod ends, adjusting sleeves, and Granada outer tie rod ends.

 

That would be nice.

Your linkage would be set up for OEM 4 piston brakes w/ OEM geometry if you should decide to go that way in the future.

 

I ordered pitman arm ,Idler arm, center link, inner an outer tierod ends an adjusting sleeves for v-8 set up. plus going to go ahead an replace all bushing in the front end. how do these cars usually drive this the proper setup. do most of you still get bump steer? do the bump steer kits really worth the money? just asking incase new linkage isn't up to my standard. thanks guys for your info.
