I came across a set of drop spindles for my 71 C10. I'm not sure who made them. The only problem with them is the diameter of the hole that holds the outer tie rod. The hole is a little bigger than the tapered tie rod bolt.
Has anyone else had this issue and what can I do to fix it? Is there a shim I could use? Hopefully I'm not the only one who has had this issue.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks
