F350 4wd tie rod setup

Can anyone tell me how the tie rod and drag link are setup on a 94' F350 (Dana 60) 4wd?
Is it like the F250 (Dana 50 IFS) TTB? Drag link from pitman arm to knuckle and tie rod from draglink to knuckle. Or is it setup with a tie rod from knuckle to knuckle then a drag link from the tie rod to the pitman arm.?
Any info please.
Thanks

To put it in more simple terms, my '92 F350 4x4 has one tie rod from knuckle to knuckle and a drag link that connects that one big tie rod to the pitman arm on the end of the steering box, like most solid front axle American trucks from the '70's on up .

Thanks, As some of you know this is a SAS in a 2wd 76 F150. I have never seen a F350 setup. So this helps alot.
Now I know what to expect when I order tie rod components for a 94 F350 4wd
Thanks again.
