Which Tie-rods To Purchase??? Opinions Needed!
Recently I have been replacing most of the parts on my 13+ year old front suspension with new OEM parts or aftermarket parts. I'm ready to buy inner and outer tie-rods now and I would like some opinions to help me make a good choice. I've decided to go with either OEM tie-rods or Tein tie-rods. The car is a daily driver and the only time I drive hard is when I autocross a couple of times a year. Which of these two brands should I go with given the big difference in price between the two? I've also heard the argument from different people that the Teins are really good and from others that they are just slightly better than OEM.

Put the inner and outer tie rods on yesterday. It was a breeze install. The only trouble was taking off the big screw on the inner tie rod that connects it to the steering rack. You need a big F'in wrench to handle that screw and, just my luck, I did not have one. My car was taken apart so I couldn't drive to the parts store so the only thing I had to use was a pair of vise-grips. What a pain taking that thing off with them. To anybody taking off their inner tie-rods...get a BFW(big friggin' wrench)!
