The steering column is ED Falcon pre air bag and a Sierra coupling to the rack. (Tripod Cars. TPC)
Andrew at TPC uses a Toyota unit and can supply all the components required for the front end and steering to suit his chassis including the "A" arms.
I made mine due to budget restraints but if I had the money, they would have come from TPC. I used DN20 Sch40 SMLS pipe Grade 350 and 4140 round bar for the top threaded piece to the top ball joint. That also required a 17mm thread which you won't find on the shelf at the hardware. The bushes are out of an early Landcruiser but again...TPC and make your life easy.
I made the rack mounts using some of the escort parts and 6mm plate.
The bush and bearing at the bottom of the column have been replaced with better material and a 1" self aligning bearing and housing as the column tilts and extends.
