Default Drag link servicable?

Hello guys,

I have some play in my drag link and some wobble over bumpy roads....is the drag link serviceable? i.e can the ball joint at the knuckle end be changed or do a i need a complete drag link? what about the steering linkage side? most kits i've seen at quadratec have only a new joint for the knuckle side....

thanks

The drag link is two pieces, niether are servicable. I recently bnought the upper and I think it was $35. Not sure about the lower (longer) part.

You need to buy the entire drag link (minus pitman arm side tie rod end and steering wheel adjuster) if you want to replace the tie rod end at the knuckle. Retarded design, if you ask me.
