The actual dimensions of the center link is the same 4wd or 2wd? Also the location within the frame is identical as well, same power steering box, same pitman and idler arm? The only difference is the size of the center link bushings?
Thanks.

I think if the idler is the 2.5 & NOT the 3.5" bolt pattern then it's the 27mm....30mm goes for 3.5"...can't get dealer to verify yet to order..
