Thanks,

Not to nitpick - a relay rod (in my world) is the rod between the steering box and the steering arm (bolted to the knuckle). A tie rod is what ties the wheels together. I may have a relay rod in my barn, if that's what you need. I don't have a tie rod.

No worries, the clarification is welcomed. The part I’m looking for is the rod connecting the knuckles. It looks like Toyota actually calls it an adjust tube. I’ve also always called it a tie rod as well. When I was looking at the diagram to make sure I got my terminology correct, I referenced the 2wd parts list by mistake.
