Need a little help finding a new main tie rod

Had a bit of a miscommunication and as a result the tie rod is believed to be on its way to becoming a new Schwinn or part of a KIA.

Anybody know the part number off hand for the main tie rod? I've searched for an hour and all I can come up with are the ends, idler and sleeves.

Thanks guys.

As soon as you said Center Link the cob webs shook loose and remembered that is the common name and wanted to kick myself. Then again it's been a few years since I turned a wrench for a living so I'm sure that's not the only term I've forgot.... huh, where am I?

I'll have to look and see if I still have one. A couple weeks ago I sent a couple stock front suspensions to the scrap yard.
