Re: k30 front end parts
Side to side are refered to as front tie rods, pitman to splindle are called rear tie rods. Had the same issue when i did mine.

Re: k30 front end parts
We always called the fore/aft link a "drag link".
And it is adjustable (even as an original part); that's how you straighten the steering wheel after an alignment. K

Re: k30 front end parts
Most places/people call it a drag link. I had to get one for my gmc.
