Original Owner of my '89 200. I still grin to myself at the quality of these Bricks.

Replaced the Outer Tie Rods for the first time on this car. 333000+ miles. The drivers side was still tight. That's what made me grin.. Over 300K and I'm doing these for the first time AND one is still good. Tie Rods are one of those things I do in pairs.
the Passenger side had a bit of movement when the Wheel was up off the ground. It did not feel sloppy when driving. Just one slow gradual turn in my area made the wheel shimmy a bit yet I couldn't get it to do it anywhere else. That little shimmy in hat one section of road was the reason I decided to investigate. Couldn't reproduce the problem on any other road... weird
