Default full width D44 drag link/tie rod

Ok, so im doing my build in an ***-backward order... long story short, i need to go ahead and get my steering linkages cut to length, but my 44 is in peices, so im unale t take measurements. Thats where yu guys come in! if i can get someone to measure the legnth of thier tie rod and drag link, i would be totally indebted to you!

Sorry to say, but we could all measure and come up with something slightly different. I would be patient and wait till your axle is together and then mock it up. Just my .02
