I know i'm going to need to borrow or rent a tie rod tool for this weekend, the only problem is that i'm not sure how much its gonna cost, and I was wondering if by some off chance someone on here has one or knows of someone with one.
The tie rod on my left rear tire is pretty much busted, according to firestone, which would explain why my car fishtails to the right everytime i hit a bump. Anyways, I guess that with the car up, you can wiggle the wheel a bit. Ok. So I'm getting new tie rods and im going to be replacing them.
Oh, and I've apparently destroyed a set of tires in under 10K miles. There went my 70,000 mile warranty. Oh, and I guess strut bars and spring blockers are frowned upon :lol: . (I don't know why but i thought blockers would help shore up the suspension. Helped a little going over speedbumps ). Since I'm not taking the car to college, it's sitting in a garage, so I don't care about the tires, I'm just gonna get it aligned correctly, so that when I put on decent tires for next year, it's all fine and dandy.
But back to the tool...what am i looking at cost wise?
