They are called "toe links" in the rear and as far as I know Ford doesn't make them anymore. I damaged the threads in my stock pieces when I had the rear end apart for a gear swap over the winter. The dealership told me Ford doesn't make them anymore and the people at the parts store won't even know what you're talking about, not even NAPA.

The only replacements I was able to find was at FTBR, and they are definitely quality parts! Full Tilt Boogie Racing Shopping Cart

Sure you can also buy HD aftermarket units, & MM has sold them for many years...

Okay, feel better now that you've called me out? :thumbsup:

All I know is that when I needed that part three different local dealerships told me the part is not available from Ford, it's past it's parts retention period.

Apparently your mileage varies.

Nah, only trying to point out that more often than not, some of the parts-counter people can be real clueless!!
