Default 95 xj tierod

New to the group and stumped with my new 95 xj sport purchase. Driver side tie rod end, is to small for knuckle. I can literally push the whole tie rod stud in and wobble by hand. Was this way when I purchased it, bought new tie rod end with same result. Is there another jeep knuckle that has larger diameter. Possible previous owner has swapped too.? Appreciate all help.

Sometimes they open up the hole to use a larger tie rod end or other heavy duty steering parts . the only way to fix it is to replace the knuckle .
