i need to replace the steering bar nearest the front of the disco. I thought it was the track rod tube?....... ive been given the rear tube that the damper fits too which i thought was the drag link!

Can you enlighten me before i take it back.......thanks

Its the other way around sorry. How i remember it.....The track control rod is behind the axle and is lengthened or shortened in order to control the track of the wheel. The drag link is the one that the steering box uses to "drag" the wheels around via the left had swivel. If you change the length of the the drag ling it changes the posuition of the steering wheel but not the geometry of the wheels.
