I think I lost a ball joint

I heard a snap when pulling into the driveway I looked underneath and here’s what I found

Air cleaner hose

I’m not sure what this is called, it attaches to the air cleaner housing, I don’t know how it got so bad, how important is this and what does it do exactly? If this is the wrong place to post this let know and I’ll move it

A-pillar trim question

Would the A-pillar trim from a ’77 Diplomat 2-door fit an ’85 Gran Fury?

Windshield wiper linkage

I need one of the windshield wiper linkage arms? (not sure the name) the ones inside the cowl, I need the one that connects the left and right windshield wipers together (with red arrow in picture)

Windshield trim removal

I found a Fifth Ave in a junkyard a few towns away, I’d like to replace the windshield trim they bent and warped all the old trim (and broke most of the clips) when they put the windshield in and claimed they’d pay to replace it this was 2017…never happened I bent the pieces back together as best I could but some of it sticks out and I don’t need sand getting in and rusting the windshield frame…how hard is it to remove the trim? Is there a special way to take them off or a special tool…

Steering box/gear

Napa got the steering box wrong for the second time-there are no screw holes for the valve body. Wheres a good place to find one? I didn’t see a steering box listed on Rock Auto
