Some of the new models have threads and lock nuts on each end. Loosen the lock nut on each end. Take a ruler (the folding wooden ones like carpenters use is best) and measure the distance between the front tires on the front side of the tires. Now measure the distance between the front tires on the back side. The back side should be about 1/4 inch wider. The drag link is made so when it is turned it will adjust both sides at same time. Recheck measurement. If OK, tighten lock nuts.

Applications of drag link mechanism?
The drag link mechanism is commonly used in steering systems of vehicles to transmit motion from the steering wheel to the wheels. It helps to ensure precise and controlled steering by connecting the steering gear to the wheels. Drag link mechanisms are also used in industrial equipment and machinery for precise and efficient control of movement.

What does a drag link do?
A drag link converts rotary motion from a crank to a second crank or link in a different plane or axis.The term is commonly used in automotive technology for the link in a four bar steering linkage that converts rotation of a steering arm to a center link and eventually to tie rod links which pivot the wheels to be steered. A drag link is used when the steering arm operates in a plane above the other links. The drag link converts the sweeping arc of the steering arm to linear motion in the plane of the other steering links.An alternate steering mechanism is a rack and pinion, a three bar linkage that eliminates the drag link by directly moving the center link.The length of a drag link can affect the geometry and thus the steering ratio. Severe wear of this part can affect the wheel alignment such as Toe-in or Toe-out settings. This can drastically affect the handling and stability of the vehicle at speed.
