    I need a Left Inner and a Right Outer Tie Rod.

    Im just going to replace them all (both inner and both outer) but dont know which manufacturer makes the best one. The girl before replaced the same two Tie Rods 2 years ago and I thought they last longer than two years so I am thinking she put in cheaper quality ones.

    Any suggestions for a good replacement manufacturer?

    Its a 2000 Grand Prix GT btw.

    Thanks

    A lifetime warranty for manufacturer defects etc., but how long on average do they last? I don't drive like a nut bar. I take corners easy (20-30KM tops) and don't drive around looking for potholes in the road or anything lol.

    A rough avg/guess for stock AC delco ones is 75-100k miles.

    So figure about the same with those.
