how reliable would it be to make an Inverted T setup out of '85 Chevy Blazer steering joints and custom tubes.

similar to this:



Tie Rod:
ES2233L for pass side (reamed hole for TRE) NAPA PN 269-2554
ES2234R for driver side

Drag Link:
ES2027L for pitman arm (high angle)
ES2234R for pass side (mounts to TRE ES2233L)

The ES2027L and ES2026R are stock 85 Blazer drag link ends.

The ES2233L and ES2234R are stock 85 Blazer tre's. the ES2233L is the tie rod end (not on the drag link) that has the steering stabilizer hole that is re-tapered to the GM spec (1.5"/ft, but Drag link end has same taper, but larger hole).

And all of these are 7/8-18" on the threaded ends.

it seems like it would it would be a great upgrade with off the shelf parts.






I would match it all up with DOM tubbing. and jam nuts and stuff.

It is about
$178 using MOOG TRE's

$98 using Master Pro TRE's




just looking for opinions on the overall strength of the TRE's and the setup
