Re: Original replacement parts.

These are the inserts for the front uprights to take the upper and lower ball joints as well as the tie rod end. I made these to original spec but in high grade 17-4 stainless steel so they do not have to be plated and will not rust. The originals were unplated steel and always rusted. They can be bought individualy or in a complete set of 6 at a discount. I also made the later MK11 style upper insert that has a straight .502 hole instead of a taper and .125 taller to accept the aircraft bolt to allow front end setting changes. MK11s used the same lower and ball joint insert.
