By Kirk Peterson on Tuesday, July 21, 2009 - 07:24 pm:I have a 27 Touring.
Is part 2722, the steering yolk bolt set (3 pieces) in this picture?
I am going to replace 2127B, 2728, 2729B bolt set (6 pieces).
Where is the 2722 bolt set used?
Thanks 
By Steve Jelf on Tuesday, July 21, 2009 - 08:12 pm:Ooh! Ooh! Officers Toody and Muldoon say take a look at Page Six in the Ford parts book. In the lower illustration is #2721-C (spindle connecting rod yoke). I think it goes there.

Thanks for your response. I see on page six I made a transpo error. That is what I thought also. But, doesnt the 2721-B with nut go there?
What am I not seeing?
By Ken Kopsky on Tuesday, July 21, 2009 - 09:43 pm:2722 (in the catalogs) is the split-socket bolt kit. It connects 2728 (Ball Socket Cap) to 2725 (Steering Gear Connecting Rod). You need two kits for each side of 2725. The bolt goes through the cap, screws into the rod then the nut is applied and cotter pinned. It's the bolt showing above the yoke in your picture.
"3-pieces" = Bolt, nut, cotter pin.

By Adrian Whiteman on Wednesday, July 22, 2009 - 04:49 am:From a suppliers site:
The following items are included with this item.QT Item Number Description
1 B-COT-7 Cotter pin, 1/8 X 1"
1 BOLT9 Thick head drilled shank 3/8-24 X 1-1/8
1 CAST1 3/8-24 castellated nut
By Kirk Peterson on Wednesday, July 22, 2009 - 02:15 pm:Thanks for information. So, in vendor catalogs, two 2722 bolts sets are same as one 2729 bolt set.
By Ken Kopsky on Wednesday, July 22, 2009 - 03:07 pm:Ops. I lied. I was getting cornfused. 2729 is the 2-bolt kit for the Steering Gear Connecting Rod (2725). You would need one kit for each side of the connecting rod. The single bolt kit (2722) is for the yoke on the early style Spindle Connecting Rod (2717). The early style had the ball forged with the yoke and a separate bolt for the clamp. This would be the bolt you loosen to adjust toe-in.
On later styles, the ball was separate and also acted as the clamp for adjusting rod length or toe-in.
Sorry for my error.

Thank you so much for the clarification. Looking at the catalogs, I had a hard time understanding the application of the part number 2722.
Ooh! Ooh!

By karl v schlachter on Thursday, July 23, 2009 - 04:16 pm:Hi, Those anti-shimmy springs will wear 2 nice grooves in you're spindle arms, took mine off for that reason, You can have mine Doc if you need them
By jack daron-Indy. on Thursday, July 23, 2009 - 08:52 pm:I agree,I have several hanging up for "Display " purposes only.
By Larry Smith on Friday, July 24, 2009 - 10:56 am:Those bolts are used all over the engine and transmission cover. If they work, use them. Some times the vendors catalogs can be confusing.
