Ford has different part numbers for their inner tie rod depending on wheel size. Does anyone know what the difference is between the various configurations/part numbers?

tie-rods listed for the S197 depend on the wheels size like you said. This link has pictorial representations/drawings for each part listed and it also gives the individual components for each of the 3 different tie rods by clicking on each tie rod listed. There are differences illustrated and they are shown. You might want to take a look here.Ford has different part numbers for their inner tie rod depending on wheel size.

There are limiters that come with the tie rods. The ones that came with the tie rods for the 18" wheels are blue, where as the ones that came stock on my Boss, 19" wheels, are gray. Rousch makes 5mm limiters that you can stack on top of your stock limiters. I believe I got mine through American muscle.Are there limiters inside all of them? Reason I ask is that I just bought the Rousch limiter set because my 2014 was originally a base GT with 18x8 wheels and I want to go to an 18x10 square setup.
I have since put in 18x9 wheels with 265/40 up front and Brembo 4-pots with 3" Vorshlag brake ducts.
My tires barely rub on my duct hose and I want to go to an 18x10 with 285s setup.
That's why I bought the limiters. Since mine was originally an 18x8 car it may not have an limiters. I've always been amazed at the tight turning radius. But if it does have a limiter, is it ok to stack another limiter next to it?
