Default Tie rod end replacement

Hey,
I want to replace my tie rods w/ ball joints when I do my suspension build. Should I just get an OEM replacement or should I be looking out for an aftermarket tie rod? What companies make them?
Thanks.

use a honda one, cant go wrong for the price and quality
Theyre easy to change, just be sure to count the threads or mark it somehow beforehand

To change the inner "rack ends" you will need some replacement lock washers (included w/ rack ends #1 $40.00 each), and new boot clamps (and you may as well get new boots). I'ts not the same procedure, but you will be able to do it w/ the proper sized wrenches. You need two, one on the rack end, and one on the rack, to break them loose. Then they just unscrew off. Then you just stamp down the lock washers.

buy them here (you should change your year make & model if your not 92-95 civic manual steering)
