I just failed the state inspection because the tie rod is loose on the passenger side. I was told I need the inner tie rod (from the boot to the nut) replaced and should do the outer (nut to the wheel) at the same time. I was quoted $349 for it and walked out. I have read a number of posts, but am unsure of the names for these. Are both of these together the tie rod end? Or are they seperate parts. I have read that some use a pickle fork and some ppl just tap it out with a hammer. Any tips for a poor unemployed newbie would help.

Thanks
