Go to the local auto parts store and compare prices. I am fairly confident that you can get a better price than you will from the idiots at Mustangs Plus and their parts aren't special....they get them from the same manufacurers that the auto parts store does. Check TRW and Moog as both should have the parts you desire.
Even the off brands are more than likely just reboxed parts from major vendors.

I second this motion,,,,, Tie rods are pretty simple, nothing much there to separate one from another, even the cheap ones last forever if you keep them greased. The one's on my 89 Ranger are the originals, always greased them twice a year, they're still good as new.

Don't buy any part from a Mustang supplier unless you have to.

Me Too! Moog parts are the only way to go. NAPA does have 'em. I got the part # and looked on ebay. Half price!
