They are used to tranmsit forces between two parts where the angle between them varies in more than one plane.
So they are both ball joints but track rod end is used pretty much exclusively for the joints on the ends of the steering arms.
On servive box part 5 is the track rod kit that includeds the track rod end and the locking nut. The nut that joints the track rod end to the hub ( 70 )is separate (Typical tight Peugeot)
