    correct. CV is in front of strut, and tie rod is behind strut.

    thats the CV you have circled though. You can see them both in the other side pic:

    That is the steering rod I circled. The cv is clearly behind where I circled. You can tell from where it's sitting on the truck. :shrug: Not sure what you're seeing? Perhaps my line that actually does cross into the CV, but I was circling the steering rod, that's why I put an arrow.

    This pic should clear up the confusion, CV axles aren't adjustable... :jester:

    Me either, I don't understand what they're seeing honestly. It's clear those are tie rods, very nice tie rods, but tie rods nonetheless. Unless Ford decided to make the steering rods non adjustable and their CV axles adjustable. :shrug:
