Hi all,
My 99 Altima (106k kms) just failed the yearly safety inspection due to a bad inner left tie rod end. I'm just curious what an inner tie rod end is -- I've always understood the tie rod end was the ball joint at the end of the tie rod that bolts into the wheel hub, so is the inner end just the other end of the tie rod where it fits into the rack? I don't see any leaks or feel any play so I'm wondering what's wrong that requires replacement.
