I once had to change the 'drag link'* on a Carlton because of play in one of the ball joints.

*Names I use for Omega steering components
1. Steering wheel (hopefully we can agree on that one ;))
2. Steering column
3. Steering box/power steering box/recirculating ball steering box
4. Steering arm (on steering box) (apparently also called Pitman arm)
5. Drag link (bar that links steering arm and steering idler)
6. Track rods (one each side from drag link to an arm on each hub)

Has anyone got any better words to describe the steering components?
