What is the part that attatches the axle to the ?wheel? It is a rod? My truck was wrecked, and this part, whatever it is called, is bent. The truck rolls, but the front wheels are negative cambered. It is a 1991 Lariat 350 dually.

If the wheels are neg. cambered meaning the lean inwards at the top.

A few things to inspect assuming this is a 2WD, F350 with IFS

1. The inner bushings (under the engine) on independent suspension [bracket may be bent]

2. The ball joints – upper & lower

3. The radius arms may be bent [struts which attach to the frame & front suspension]

4. Springs/top spring brackets may be twisted

Tie Rod or Control Arm. Take it off and take it to an auto parts store or a Ford Dealer, they'll know what it is.
