Hello I'm trying to figure out if a 32 steering link
"From spindle to spindle" are the same size as a 34??? Not the drag link from pitman arm. Thank you.

Well, I can help you with the name, but that is about it!

Tie-rod

Those are on each end. LoL.

Actually they're tie rods ends and the tie rod is the center section.

As for the answer to the question, the tie rod and tie rod ends are the same '32-'34, unless you want to get really technical and acknowledge the difference between '32 tie rod end grease fittings and the later tie rod end grease fittings.

Well, if you want the parts manual name, it's Spindle Connecting Rod & End, Spindle Connecting Rod. But never heard these terms used. All I've ever heard is Tie-Rod and Tie-Rod Ends.

We will just stick to tie rod. It's the easiest. I guess it all comes down to where in the world you are. Here in California we always call them steering link or maybe just around my stomping grounds. Thanks for the help guys.
