PSA: Draglinks should not be bent in 3 places
Finally replaced this tonight.

I have no idea how I managed to bend it in 2 places. The stud on the stabilizer was even bent!
That is all. The truck drives beautifully now.

Also, did yours have an "extension" on one end that was threaded in? Mine did and it was a PITA to get it out, had to keep heating up the bar itself in order to work that short extension out.

Look in the shop manual. 
Yeah, they all have those. I relocated my steering damper to in front of the axle and ma using a D90 style track rod.
The stock damper location on the D1 is asinine if you off-road.
