First of all, if it's a 4x4 which is usually the trucks that do the spindle swap, it won't have a steering rack.Most importantly though, you don't get metric threaded stock from McMaster Carr and weld it to your tie rods or any other steering part!! Geez, somebody will get hurt that way! The correct way to address this problem would be to get in a Moog or other manufacturer of steering components' catalog and find some tie rods with the correct dimensions, BUT knowing that the steering arm position has moved from its original position, it would be best to find a company that makes a bump steer kit for your truck so that the altered steering geometry can be brought back into an acceptable parameter. These have the added benefit of extending the tie rod, normally so you will kill the two proverbial birds with whichever single, old front end part that you decide to throw at them..</blockquote>
