I will be replacing inner & outer tie rods... boots & ball joints will also be replaced. what other parts (tie rod or steering gear box related) should be replaced for preventative maintenance? please post #'s from diagram

you have to inspect under the car and determine if something is bad...I replaced the whole raqck and pinion since the outer tie rods were fused to the box and could not be removed without cutting them off

did you have the special tool for removing inner tie rod ends?
