    Cheap parts wear out quickly.

    I'd find some with grease fittings to keep the joint well lubed so it lasts a long time. Think more in the range of 20-30 per tie rod maybe.

    I agree I bought a set of the cheap tie rods about a year ago and there already shot

    cheap parts are cheaply made and dont last long.

    i have duralast tie rod ends for the last 2 years, my alignment has been in and out so many times since i put them in and they are both still tight. (due to changing other parts, and one real bad alignment as well )

    i think they were about 35 a side.

    Just wanted to update this as a possibility for others. I finally found the vibration and its fixed. New tires helped and so did a cv axle, but what finally fixed it was new engine mounts
