The original toe link brace was bolted to the chassis in the middle and had the adjustable ends to fit things "perfectly". Later versions were simplified and just had the bar that connected one side to the other.


To add to the photo, I colored
the chassis (sub-frame) blue,
the A-arm red (note that the bushing is actually "inside" the chassis),
the toe link brace green,
and the toe link and Heim (spherical) joint orange.
