Just got a call from the mechanic, told him my steering felt funny maybe needing an alignment. they called and said i need a right front tie-rod. how much should i expect to pay for one and maybe installation? Is it easy to do? I have minimal tools and no lift.

buy 2 new ends, at a minimum. have your guy look at the bushings in the stock rods (if that's what you have) where the rods meet the yoke @ the rack. more often than not, they're garbage. if it's the stock setup, you're better off stepping up and getting the 'turbo' version. if the other side goes bad you're going to pay for another alignment. you can put them in. simple. the cost of the 2 stock ends and labor savings will pay for the turbos.
