d44, d60 drag link

I was wondering if the drag link on a 79 ford f250 is the same when using either a d44 or d60 axle. Thanks

Didn't work on mine. Tapers are smaller on 44,( i think)

If you need the 60..JBG has them, reasonable price.

OK, then what about the taper size in the arm that attaches the drag link to the steering box. Would it need to be changed also? And too, not to be real dumb, but what is "JBG"? Thanks for the help, I broke a few teeth off the d44 the other day and want to have everything ready for a quick d60 swap.

"Jeff's Bronco Graveyard" look up in the Ford truck sponsors (top of the page) it will be a link called "Bronco Graveyard".

I meant to get you the part number off my 79 f350 but it was covered in mud and it's freakin cold outside. I'll scrape on it tomorrow for you.
