Default 66 mustang v8 drag link help needed

Converting my 1966 coupe from I6 to V8 suspension and disc brake.
The problem I am having is the V8 drag link I have seems to be missing the ball joint that connects the drag link to the pitman arm.
It has the idler arm on on end then a tapered hole on the other.
I would like to just buy the ball joint and not have to buy another drag link.
thanks
Roger
