I am banging my head on the wall with this question for a few days and it hurts badly.
When I installed the Slee steering and drag rods I found that one of the TE had too much freedom all the rest of the of the TE were OK, they are 2 years old I got a set of 555 Japanese from @cruiseroutfit it is maybe a coincidence but when I bought the rig the same position TE was bad, so I have the 3 old ones for the trail back up.
I have FZJ80 USA SPEC LHD. The TE I need is this one
So I opened Toyota catalog punched in my VIN number and got this part number, the drawing is correct, but the wording says this part is LH?
Then I used the notorious MUD search engine and found this old thread. The guy was looking for the same part ordered it from the nearest dealership got the wrong part and was asking for help. The thread was totally useless because there are two contradicting answers and the OP didn't update about the happy end. @nukegoat gave what I think is the correct answer and different mud member gave the opposite answer.

RTH - TRE part number passenger side
Hi guys. Is this the right part number for my passenger side TRE? This is for the one in front of the axle that connects with the steering damper. I've ordered this and when the old one was pulled, the new one is .004 thicker than the old one. I couldn't get it in the tie rod itself. I've...
