I drive an 87 F150

My steering stabalizer bent, and snapped the bracket that connets it to the tie rod, was curious if I can change where it mounts to (mounts near my front passanger wheel) I cant find the bracket it anywhere, every parts store told me they stopped making it, went to a couple 4x4 shops said the same thing, and the salvage yard had one, but it didnt fit.

Heres a few pictures.

Thanks for help

Well, I don''t know much about Ford F150's, but from what I can tell, the tie rod is bent. The bolt is contacing the axle at full lock which tells me it is not following the same path it used to. As far as the bracket, just go to a fab shop, 4 Wheel Parts, or similar and have the cut you some tabs and weld them on. It is a 10 minute job.

yes that tie-rod is bent. No you don't need a steering stablizer.
