Tie rod ends

I just tried searching for this but nothing came up which I thought was odd... Dunno if the search is down or if this really hasn't been covered...

The shop said I need a new tie rod end. Not sure if it was inner or outer, I'll find out tomorrow. But is there a suggested brand as far as tie rod ends go? Also does anyone know of a thread or page that documents how to do it and how long it should take?

Thanks!

I don't know if A/C Delco makes tie rods. I would think most any brand would be OK. There is not much to it.

Jack the wheel up and grab it at 3:00 and 9:00 and wiggle it. If there is any play, look at the tie rod and you should see the play.

so can it wiggle or should it stay firm and still?
