My ram eats outer tie rods every 20,000 miles. I'm tired of replacing them with the same junk that goes to crap like clock work.
Who makes an outer tie rod that doesn't crap out so fast?

Grease fitting not as important as one that lasts more than a year. Ive swapped the outters every 16 months forever. That being said I've never had a problem with the ball joints! Highway driven, save the hard driving for the car. Its been a great truck otherwise, but I've never owned anything that ate tie rods so much!

I've typically used moog in the past. The best I've ever gotten out of them was about 45,000 miles.
