Default Tie rod ?

So, I had my passenger side jacked up and placed my hands at 9 and 3 on the wheel and was able to move the tire pretty easily a couple of inches on the passenger side. i did the same thing on the driver side and it moved a real little bit but not nearly as easy as the passenger side. would this be a bad tie rod end? if so the inner or outter? i also started to notice at speeds 65+ the steering wheel starts shaking and at a stop the steering wheel has some play. I did search and just wanted to make sure that it is what i think it is before replacing unnecessary parts. any help is appreciated.

I had the same problem with my EG..

Outer tie rods, replace both while your at it. $18.99 at Pepboys.

I didn't need a picklefork, all I needed was a hammer and a soft touch.

It takes 5 minutes for each side. It's that easy.

You will need an alignment after though.
