if you want to hook up the drag link and tie rod, flip it over and drill out the steering arms so you can put some tapered sleeves in. It is actually the best way to do OTK conversions. I don't think you will be able to use the track bar. Make sure you check the parallelism of the track bar and drag link. You may need to make some adjustments there
