Tie Rod end problem, 1971 LWB 109

[gallf1]

Hi:
The LR OEM tie rod end of my drag link is hitting the aftermarket type tie rod end of my steering arm when in full left turn mode.
It is binding and keeps the wheel from travelling to the full extent of the limit stop.
Could the aftermarket type tie rod end (with the grease zerk in it) be of the wrong diameter or height and thus binding with the correct LR OEM part?
I cant seem to find the Part # for the LH thread one on our hosts web site?
Please help as the Landy is down until I get this cleared up!!!
Thx
