Well, it seems 3/4 tons don't have as much demand or maybe my typos on the first post were deterring factor.
Anyway, does anybody at least knows what the part in the circle is? Based on the location I am assuming it is an outer tie rod but I am wondering if it has a different name and also if it can be rebuilt or replaced with the modern one which we know how they look. I see the 1/2 ton trucks have a drag link which has ends look like this outer tie rod which connects to 1/2 outer tie rods.
Thanks,
