Craig K. / KENtuckyKEN,
In reference to the question regarding RH or LH shank heim joints for the tie rod and drag link ends -- I looked in the MTD Cub Cadet Parts Lookup link (above) and plugged in model #1100 and it indicated that both end joints were the same part number (which, by the way, was also the same part # for a CC127 model). Being listed as the same part # would lead me to believe that both sides are the same 3/8"-24 thread style. It didn't, however, indicate whether it has RH or LH threads. Although if I were a betting man, I'd bet that the joint ends have RH threads at the female shank and stud ends.
Just trying to be of some assistance,
Ryan W
P.S.
Assuming a 3/8"-24 RH/RH threaded joint, the McM-C part choices would be:
#6058K28, OEM-style, shielded ball joint. ~$4. each.
#60645K441, is a High-Strength, steel ball joint. ~$6. each.
#6072K33 is a bronze race ball joint. ~$7 each.
#60745K84, is a High-Strength, PFTE-lined ball joint. ~$20. each.
