Hi mate, That'd be the track rod then :lol:

Get a spanner, undo it at both ends & take it off. Straighten it out & put it back on. It'll do you right till you can get another from any motor factors.

I have a southdown axle guard but have re-made my track rod with H/D sleeve that rotates so conforms to arc spec. 8)
After laying in wet mud TWICE I am not taking any chances :lol:
