Default what preference for tie rod mfgr

I just need a regular TR (outer, pass side)
no fancy race or whatever, for a DD

From plain jane parts stores, what make of TR is best?
as in:
Beck Arnley, Duralast, etc......


I am just doing the pass side all else is tight so I wont be rebuilding the whole rack just yet.
when only doing the outer pass TR
what else should I go ahead and get besides a new castle nut?

I would say either a honda one or a moog one, I use the moog ones because they have a zerk fitting so you can grease them unlike the stock ones. But if you dont take your wheels off very often you might want the oem ones since there is no maintenance since they are sealed.

thanks for the info
I don't disassemble my suspension unless it is broke, so I will just get the OEM spec w/ life wnnty at autozone.
It's a duralast.

Good to know about the grease fitting on moogs, I will keep that in mind when I am upgrading.
right now it is my DD till I get another car and let my crx go into dry dock for a major rework.

but if they dont break and just wear out... does the warranty still cover it? Because i replaced all my shocks this year...and they say(Canadian Tire) it has lifetime warranty, they mention after that they must be changed every 80.000 kms. A little Irony no?

oh yeah, quite

I included that more as a model identifier, rather than a statement of quality.

I am swapping it now

I will post pics later
