Anyone know the size of the hole in the steering knuckle where the draglink attaches.

Because the hole is tapered from the bottom up. So when you install the draglink in a flipped position you're trying to pull the taper through the smaller portion of the hole.I'm going to be installing the Evo draglink flip and know that I need to get a 13/16th's drill bit, was just curious about the difference in size and why Evo manufactured the kit making it necessary to enlarge the hole.

It is very close. Most (99%) of draglink flip kits use a tapered sleeve because reaming out the hole with a tapered reamer needs to be very precise. Most people are not capable of getting it perfect enough with a hand drill. The sleeve allows for some misalignment in the drilling, while still remaining tight.
Yes. It has a slit in the sleeve that expands when you tighten the draglink. It acts as a taper.So the sleeve is tapered? Appreciate all the help guys, just waiting on UPS to deliver all the goodies, in the interim random thoughts keep coming up about why certain things are. Went to look for a 13/16 drill bit today, no one carries bits that large, ordered one through my local mom & pop hardware store.

Yes it took me about 5 auto parts shops and 3 hardware stores until i found that drill bit.
Partially but you will want to grease them again after you install them.
I know there are quite a few opinions out there on the best grease to use, does Evo recommend a particular type for there arms?

Does it make a difference with the Evo lift if I install the coils and shocks first and then the draglink flip/trackbar bracket, or visa versa?
