Ok, I am new here on the site, Brian in my name. I want to get this clear what you are after. You want to install this Camaro steering arm on the right side spindle of your 55 Chevy so you have a spot for the drag link to hook up instead of using that tie rod end with the second hole that we see in the last picture? Is that right?

First off, why do you want to change what is there?

Second, if the length of the camaro arm is different than the other side you will have wheels turning at the wrong angle. This length needs to be the same on both sides from the center of the king pin to the center of the tie rod end pivot.

The "leverage" is going to be changed quite a bit by the length of the pitman arm as well. What you have now, without trying it you don't know.
