Hi Dan,

Haven't sorted my records to verify, but I feel as if I've replaced close to every tie rod (aka inner tie rod) on our high mileage 240s. I have not replaced one twice yet. My choice in replacement parts has always been to select by "value" - or as some might say, "cheap."

The only rack I've ever changed was on a car that came to me with fluid in the boots. I take care of any ripped boots as soon as I see them, and so much favor the ZF racks which do not need to be disconnected from the tie rod ends to do this boot replacement maintenance.

But for OP, check those suspension ball joints too. Shaking wheels always require the complete analysis: wheel bearing play, ball joint, steering joints, and control arm bushing.

I hear it is cold in Florida!
