[QUOTE="swshawaii, post: 1050177, member: 67547"] Tie rod bushing? Are you referring to outer tie rod end dust boots? If so, they are notorious for failing long before the tie rod ends themselves. Same applies to lower and upper ball joint dust boots. Haven't seen direct replacement dust boots for them, but Energy Suspension and Prothane both have universal polyurethane boots that may work rather than buying or replacing the entire part for only the dust boots. [URL='https://www.suspension.com/universal-dust-boots.asp']Universal Tie Rod Boots and Ball Joint Boots[/URL] Regarding sway bar bushings/ends. I assume you are referring to the rubber bushings that are also prone to early failure. Here's my almost permanent solution if you want to spend the time, effort, and money to put them together.
