What is this mount or bushing called
On my 85 300 sd it is making a noise in front left suspension that only seems to make noise when going slow and turning to right kind of like a creak or groan noise then disappears as soon as I complete turn traveling over a slight bump while turning brings the noise out also. Ball joint looks good in my picture it seems like the top rubber mount in picture shown is all chewed up and gone could this be causeing my noise and what is proper name for this bushing and is it hard to change?

Yes, thanks, it was called a strut rod in the old days.....
I am not sure why you think it was misslabeled... https://books.google.com/books?id=jK93oR47zkwC&pg=PA109&lpg=PA109&dq=automotive+strut+rod&source=bl&ots=e7AU3Ghvnp&sig=tQ1T9Ccgbi6Er2hExM3fcU8WMYM&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0CGQQ6AEwBWoVChMIjNeN-8bAyAIVCUqICh1UZwhW#v=onepage&q=automotive%20strut%20rod&f=false

Here is a Wiki write up DIY Whunter did.
PeachPartsWiki: Suspension Bearing Bracket guide rod mount replacement and another PeachPartsWiki: Guide Rod, Lower Control Arm Bushing and Eccentric Pin Replacement Clicked on Tech Info and pelican has been messing with it. Clicked on W126 and get me into the gassers, had to click on the W123 and it got me into the regular old DIY page. Charlie sent from my pos computer

There are 2 large rubber bushings in each "bearing carrier" that can deteriorate as well as the guide rod mount which can also deteriorate. The 2 bushings required for 1 side are not the same and you have to call Pelican to find them. Even at that, the best I could find without paying 5x the price for OE are Myle. ~ $23+- each so, $100 delivered.
