Tie rod scrubbing rim

87 300SDL, pass side tie rod is hitting the inside rim. Seems to do it if I go down then up - like a dip in the road. Passenger front tire is cupped - wearing on outsides. Car has a light shake at 45-60 mph. Bought car like this.

Was thinking of replacing that tie rod, but trying to understand why it's hitting like that. Using channel locks that one is very squishy.

Before I go hog wild replacing things wanted to hit the forum up.
