Compare the offset and end fittings

Match the original reference and right-hand location, then compare the rod's bends and the orientation of both connections. Check the condition of the mating steering fittings as well. A replacement rod will not address wear in a separate joint or steering component.

Overall length, connection-center distance and thread sizes are unspecified. Confirm these dimensions against the installed linkage and identify which mating parts are retained. The listed XT3-GSX name does not establish fit for every production version or for other XT3 models.

Steering service and final checks

Follow the tractor's service instructions for linkage removal, adjustment and fastening. After installation, check the steering alignment and movement through its full range, including clearance around the rod's bends. Resolve loose connections or binding before returning the tractor to use.
