need help finding part

[wilfonzo]

does anyone know where i can get a pair of tie rod end bushings, ive searched all over online and mine are all worn out and my cars making the clank-a-dank sound

[wilfonzo]

i tried a couple parts stores and one guy said i have to buy the entire tie rod and cant just get the bushing, is this true?

there is no bushing at the tie rod ends. Just a ball joint. Yes it's true you need to get the entire tie rod end.

[wilfonzo]

it looks all craked and crappy, when i put the brakes on i hear some clanking, and the insides of my tire have alot of wear

ok yeah and? replace the tie rod ends if that's what is worn. usually it'd be the tension rod bushing if you're looking for a bushing.

[wilfonzo]

tension rod bushing? on the driver side it would be on the lower right?

[180fan]

tension rod = up front connects to the lower control arm to another bracket up front on the car just in front of the engine. They're found on either side, the bushing is inside the big O section of the tension rod.
