I don't have any pictures handy, but from the spindles in, are an outer tie-rod, sleeve, inner tie rod, attaching to a center linkage. The driver's side has a pitman arm attaching to the steering box (splines on the box side, and a tapered rod on the linkage side, and the passenger's side has an idler arm that bolts to the frame, with a tapered rod through to the linkage.

Hope that helps.
