What is this that is broken
Is this my tie rod that is broken? Sorry for the question, I just have no idea about this stuff.
Is it safe to drive for the time being or is it a fix right this second type repair? Drivers side, front end.

thats just your sway bar link. no big deal. i actually prefer to drive my truck around without that big heavy piece of metal holding me down lol. my whole sway bar is removed right now. (better for offroading)
you can drive around as long as you want with it like that if you dont mind a little lean. not dangerous at all unless your taking turns at like 80mph....which ill need a video of if you do

That would be your sway bar end link

That is what I wanted to hear. Every now and then, it feels like the power steering has kicked on on that very side that the part is broken. Just takes a little more force to get it to turn. I move it a bit, and it turns fine.

PS, I am from Canada, so that is a good replacement part? Dodge OEM stuff is ****. Two tie rods replaced already with cheap OEM parts. Next time one goes, I am finding some advice on here for better parts. Bloody crap part.

And how does one find this stuff? I sure could use some front end help with the winch on front, mine always seems to need help.

i just replaced my sway bar end links a couple weeks ago. i bought the MOOG replacement ones and they are much stronger than the OEM ones. Any parts store should be able to get them for you. i believe i paid 35 bucks each for them locally in ottawa.
