went to get an alignment today and it seems they wouldnt do it because the right tire has play in the tire rod knuckle. there's probably less than 1/16" play on the knucke, but it shows when u move the tire, there's slight play to it. what are my options are far as fixing it? is it something i can fix myself? Mr. Tire charges 128 for parts and labor of doing it but i think i can do it myself. if i can change heads myself im sure i can do this...

also,can i get this part cheaper somewhere?

why dont you get steeda's outer tie rod ends- theyre adjustable and they eliminate bumpsteer.
