Bushings?

Sorry, I've never had a vehicle with a straight front axle before. There are rubber pieces in the ends of the steering assembly that have basically disintigrated that I want to replace them. My theory is this is what's causing my sloppy steering, but I figure even if it's not for how bad shape they're in I should replace them regardless. In the attached photo they are the two rods towards the bottom. Just to clarify though, the tie rod ends have been replaced, its the hole they slip into that are in rough shape.

The transmission thread I linked describes a potential fix for a leaky 727. Before I parked my Scout it had a little transmission slippage but I think if I can get the leak to stop and a deeper pan that May help. I need a 727 gasket (must be silicon over steel reusable), filter and possibly a deeper pan with fins for cooling. I found a chrome pan and a what appeared to be a cork gasket on your website but I don't think those are what I'm looking for...the description is pretty brief.
