I have an older poulan which is also a craftsman chassis. I was wondering if anyone has done a direct steering on one of these I'm looking for ideas

Mine is a 2009 when i got it someone had taken out most of the steering so im starting from scratch so i have the chance to beef up the tie rod ends and use stronger rods not just for the punishment of trails but higher speeds i am lucky about one thing the spindle cross mount is cast iron I beam so i will keep this and change everything else.

I see but I don't like the idea of replacing nearly everything up front I just want to know of a way to do it the cheapest and simplest
