I made a longer steering arm for a wide front for my C. The old one was bent and it steered like a pig.

The new arm is shaped like a truncated isosceles triangle. The holes for the bolts in the bottom of the bolster were 3 3/4" C-C, 21/32" diameter. The holes for the tie rod ends were 17/32" on the top and 5/8" on the bottom, 1 11/16 C-C. The original arm was 11/16" thick on the tie rod end. The sets of holes were 8 1/4" apart (front to back) on the original. I made mine 9 1/2". I think that another 1/4"-1/2" would be better.

If the holes in the 200 bolster are the same, try a mock up and see how it works. I used a piece of 3/8" scrap aluminum plate as a prototype. It has cultivated an acre of tomatoes and has not bent yet.
