Mevotech Supreme Steering Drag Link P/N:MS400129
Keep the front steering linkage tight and responsive with the Mevotech Supreme Steering Drag Link (MPN MDS1318). This front-mounted drag link transmits steering motion from the pitman arm through the linkage to turn the wheels, and it drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1990-2005 Chevrolet Astro and 1990-2005 GMC Safari — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-level applications.
Worn play in a drag link can show up as loose or wandering steering, excess free play in the wheel, or a knocking feel when turning. If a failed drag link is the cause of those signs, this unit replaces it and helps restore a firm connection through the front steering linkage. Always diagnose the source of the play before replacing, since other linkage joints can produce similar symptoms.
