Where to find odd ball tie rod ends?

I'd like to find new tie rod ends for the steering cylinders on this Ford I'm working on.
CNH doesn't sell either one anymore.
I measured them up and went through the paper catalogue at Napa and went through the paper Moog catalogue at another independent parts store but nothing even close at either place.
You guys have any other sources for odd ball ones?
Thanks.

I took my old one in to Advance Auto (with calipers in my pocket) and he let me go through the rack until I found a match.
In my case, a Jeep something matched the JD 40U.
 
What model Ford?

A&I handles a lot of that stuff, need to find a local reseller of them.

Ford especially crosses a lot of stuff to auto parts, they bought from the auto suppliers back in the day for cars, trucks, tractors.....
 
Go up to Larson implement in Cambridge and look in their yellow shed. They have shelves full of those. You have to look for them tho.
 
If you have a decent counter guy at auto parts store, they can search catalogs or their computer. They should be able to search by the taper size and thread. The right taper might even be able to be re-threaded to fit too.

Another option is drill the taper out and use a spherical rod end (Heim joint), they are strong and readily available. I did this on my tractor that someone cut/welded a bolt to the tie rod so it could thread to the cylinder.

Thanks fellas.
Paul, it's for a 4200.
Jon, I haven't been up to Larsen for a few years. Might have to bring my 84 yo tractor pal Kenny along and make an afternoon of it.
