Connecting tie rod question


Tooljunkie

Recommended Posts

Hello, need to pick the collective brain. 
as i am in the process of going through the front end of my 49 fargo i took notice of the long tie rod end, it has a pretty good arc to it. Im wondering if this is the way it should be or should it be straight? 
this  truck Appears to have had a rough life on the farm where it came from and this may be something i need to correct. 
 

thanks in advance for you help.

The drag link has a bend in it.

You should check out the link it has the parts list for our trucks with drawings of most of the parts and tons of other info.

As said, the Drag Link that connects the steering box pitman arm to the right side spindle has a bend it it. The Tie Rod that connects the right side spindle to the left side spindle should be straight. 

Awesome. Thanks. Its bent.
