upon separating the block I took the drag link from the steering arm and found the inner ball socket to be worn and broken. This drag link end does not have threads and appears to be part of the main drag link shaft. Does anybody know of a replacement for this end or do I need to find the entire drag link?

If it is part of the steering rods then you can buy these from a Sparex parts dealer or from this site, if it is the Radius rod as someone suggested then these are not available from the normal suppliers.

For the radius rods you can buy repair kits, and you get new foot rests at the same time.

hey david...i'm trying to remember, you have a to-20 right? with a to-30 engine? or am i mixing you up with someone else?

anyway, my to-20 and my to-35 have removeable "tie rod ends" at both end of the drag link...(if i'm understanding what your asking). it's made this way with LH threads on one end, RH on the other so you can adjust the toe in by turning the drag link. is it possible someone welded you end in the drag link?

Mike, Thanks for your info. Yes I'm the guy with a to 20 with a z129. The drag link rear is definitly not adjustable, it appears it may have been welded, however there is no signs of that. Any suggestions as to where I can pick up a replacement?

I think the part you are talking about runs from the front axle to the side of the transmission, its not a steering link. That one is called a radius rod... The steering link running front to rear is called a drag link.

Obviously talking about what some may call the steering tie rod?

The tie rod end/ball joint thread is either welded to the tie rod/drag link (you should be able to see the weld?) or the tie rod end/ball joint thread is rusted into tie rod/drag link.

If it's been welded you should be able to pick up a used drag link from your local tractor wreckers and new tie rod ends are available at very reasonable price.

You should have noticed "play" in the steering?
