2g tie rod end brand

[DSM_GSX01]

yes i am looking to see what brand of tie rod ends i should get. I would like to know what you have on your DSM? Also if you recommend this product and how long they have lasted? I plan on redoing my inner and outer tie rods. Also i am planning on new sway bars. I would like to know what brand you have and how is the product. Thank for the info.

I personally prefer Moog brand. 9 out of 10 times they are an American made product. I also know that they have whats called a "problem solver" line, which may or may not be applicable to these cars, but they take a particular oem item that is prone to failure and redesign it to make it last longer, or perform better. Moog tends to be a more expensive choice, but I have not once had a product not fit, or function the way it should. I can say that some of the cheaper things ive tried, or installed for people (say a tie rod end), the taper for the spindle was the wrong size or length, and I have seen the threads be off center for the inner portion. I have had Moog upper ball joints, the straight arm lower balljoint and both outer ends on my car for going on five years. They do get greased regularly, and are showing no signs of wear or failure.

I haired good things about the brand. I have never used them. I still have OEM ones on so i want to upgrade. I was also wondering now if all Moog ball joints, tie rod ends come with grease fittings?

Is there any other brands out there?

Oem or moog is what I would suggest. Don't want to skimp out on suspension parts bro!!

Another vote for Moog. In my opinion they are worth the extra couple of dollars. I have used their tie-rods, ball joint and endlinks.

Called the local parts store and they can get the Moog tie rods for $30 each. Is that a good price?

Is there Advanced Auto out your way?

If so, order online and pick up in store. When purchased online, there are discount codes to get up to 20% off your parts. PM me, and I can send you some codes.

No there is not. The closest is 2 hours away.

The inner tie rods are usually what wear out on these cars. I went with all OEM inner/outer assemblies including new boots and it was about $300 including shipping for both sides through JNZTuning. A bit pricey but it's not something you want to skimp on!
