I need to get out today and compare those two setups.  I took a look at what
Darrel did, and it seemed like the only "custom" component was a steel block
about 7" long that was tapped, along with a hole tapped in the knuckle.
That shouldn't be too bad.  Of course, if I could just get a dropped pitman
arm from something else that uses a saginaw steering box - that would be
cheaper & better!
