Question Center Link Backwards

Steering has felt funny since I bought this truck. Had some time and was researching things today. Is my center link on backwards? It sure looks like it based on other pictures/diagrams I've seen. First pic is drivers side, next two are passenger side. All taken from under the front bumper.

Thanks for the confirmation. Now to decide what I should go ahead and replace since I need to take it apart...

As far as I know, no one sells centerlinks.
Look at the tapered holes for wear.
If it's fine, just flip it end for end.
Your inner tie rod nuts should now be on the front side of the centerlink.
