the rod on one of mine is bent, doesn;t look like it is damaged, but I have never sen that before. Had the alignement done, they said eveything is okay, but that is is bent. I am talking about the front passenger.

are you talking about the anti-roll bar links? They are marked with L and R so I think they are mirror images of each other, not identical. They are common fail parts, mazdatrix has replacement ones that are better and cheaper than the stock ones.

You mean the rod on the steering rack?

There isn't anything like that on the front. The only adjustment should be for the steering rack, the tie end rods are probably what you're talking about and they should be fine if the alignment is good.

I removed my driver's side tie rod end last night because it was leaking. I orderd one today. I remember your thread, and I then asked if the part number for the passenger side is the same. Sure enough, both part numbers are the same. At least for an FD it is. The parts guy told me they are different for some cars.
