Normal for Stock Tie Rod/Drag Link?

[DrBob]

Wanted to check with the group on this one. Stock tie rod and drag link can by wiggled by hand producing a "clunk" at the knuckles. Is this normal for the stock assembly? Video was too large to upload.

Yes, a rotational knock is normal. They shouldn't be making noise in the direction of load, however.
