Put me down as another Uro hater- tie rods this time

I installed these Uro tie rods a couple of years back. This weekend, I noticed a violent shake at various speeds (40-50mph). I thought it might be the tires needing rebalancing. So today I take the car to the tire place, while it is on the rack, I do the 9 and 3 o'clock shake and note a good half inch play on the driver's side. I don't bother with the balancing.

The interesting thing is the rubber is still good but the joint inside is clearly bad.

I placed my Pelican order with "kenny" for the center drag and sides.

I am NEVER going to put anything but OE parts on my car again. My life is not worth risking over this.
