Okay, my machinist friend rules. Did a test on the drag link hole on my spindles to see if he could cut the taper and leave enough meat to bolt on the ball joint (I know, I need a pic for visuals here - Friday, I promise). Had it done by noon and I checked it out - worked! So, he asked when I needed them and I suggested Friday, but we share the same day off, so he cut them while I waited! Total charge: $15!

Oh, yeah.
I need to get some pics of his shop: classic; gears, wagon wheels, metal shavings, tools, ancient milling machines, and the pervasive smell of slightly burnt metal and cutting oil.
