I want to clarify what I said. My "inner" tie rod ends were worn. These are the ones about 12" in from the wheels. These you cannot relace independently of the center link. The outer tie rod ends you can replace seperately but mine were not worn as far as I could tell. And when I got the new center link it had new outer tie rod ends with it so I ended up with new ones anyway.
