I'm in the need to replace my Tie rods and wondering what brand you would use to replace them with.

Factor in purchasing only from either Rockauto or Advance Auto Parts.

Moog is what I hear is the best, But I've heard they've cheapened their product out lately.

I'd say if not AC Delco, than definitely MOOG. Haven't heard at all that MOOG is cheapening there product, still a safe bet.

Moog "Problem Solvers", there is a cheaper line of Moog parts, you want the problem solvers.

Haven't had a problem with any moog part i have used.

The Problem Solver line is usually pretty heavy duty. In some cases, even better than OE to address common failure points.

Their R-Line is the cheapo stuff. Avoid that.

I used Moog problem solvers to replace my inner and outer tie rods. Moog came out with a cheaper line of Moog call R-line (R for ricers) and those are the chepo ones. Just make sure you aren't getting the Moog R line garabage and you should be good.

I agree.. I have 100K on my Moog Problem solver tie rod ends, replaced them with the Rack & Pinion..

So the AC Delco( get the expensive one ) or the Moog Problem Solver...

^ Important on the AC Delco. Their "Advantage" line is the same idea as the Moog R-Line. Low-end and built to be cheap, not built to last.
