I don't think I would drive it with that tie rod bent all to hell like that. You're toe in will be a bit out of wack and if you keep driving it you'll chew up your tires.
i will get one more pic from farther out to see the front tierods i forgot about that, but it looks strait...brb
yea i would love to purchase those very badly. i just need to fix it tho i'm kinda broke for now. so my conclusion is just track rod and possible one left rear tierod...?
thanks for the advice folks.
i'm gonna meander my way to the shop in the AM trying to take as few turns as possible.
hopefully they can give me some more of the nitty gritty shit but i think i'm not in too bad of shape.
wish i could upgrade at this time to those HD tracks, but i'm a loser and there's no money in digging graves anymore...j/k
time to get out the old trek bundle up...:victory:

X2 and the track rod is attached to the steering box. The tie rod connect the knuckle to knuckle.
Your tie rod is seriously bent. when you replace that, you should relocate your ome to the defender position. Keith makes some good products to fix your problems.

Always a nomenclature thing... In standard US Garage speak the tie tod ties the two steering arms together while the drag ling is what is used to drag the steering around with the Steering box via the pitman arm. The panhard rod is frequently called the Track Bar as it keeps the car tracking true down the road. These steering bars are held to the streering arms via Tie rod ends.
In UK speak, the track rod can equal the tie rod or the drag link or even the Panhard although the drag link is usually the drag link, the tie rod ends are usually steering ball joints and the pittman arm is the "drop arm" .
It's confusing sometimes... i always try to ask lots of Q's before selling the part..
yea this is gonna sound just as stupid as driving thru tall grass @ night in the first place, but... i've got to drive ol' puddles down the road about 5 miles (back roads) to get to the shop. then i'll leave her there for now. gonna try not to turn too much its an easy road.
this shit makes me feel like i'm naked, running backwards thru the woods and it's dark out.:ack:
its freezing out and i cant drive the bike much longer...! going to pray its cheap and Will has the parts!!!

as for the hd nt, too broke. i wish tho, maybe this summer when i can work outside again. right now it's really starting to get cold and not good for rover work. i have no garage, plus i couldn't fit in it anyway (rack and spare on it).
wish me luck, i will probably get raped again.

I second the RTE rods and relocation clamp. If you relocate the damper, I BELIEVE a different damper is required... Think think... Yes, a d-90 damper.
If your TREs are relatively new, reuse them. Use the money saved to buy a decent oil filter.
