I've only known this rod to be called a drag link, but on the Studebaker site some guys call it the "reach rod". When I saw that I asked if they meant the drag link. They said it's called a "reach rod" and drag link is a term from the hot rod guys. I wonder where they got that idea, because all the books I've seen also call it a drag link.

Anyway, if you ever here "reach rod", you'll know what they mean.
