I'm rebuilding the front end of my car and found that a set of turbo tie rod ends that I'd installed back in 9/2002 already had cracked boots which means they're on borrowed time. I bought the tie rod ends from GPR in San Luis Obispo.
I just called GPR (Dave) and described the problem. He's sending new ends and some spare boots. Apparently the supplier of kits had some inferior boots. So, if you bought a turbo tie rod kit around that same time last year you might want to inspect the boots - no matter who you purchased from (they probably all come from one or two root suppliers).
Kudos to GPR for standing behind the product! I've always liked doing biz with them but now they've moved up a couple of notches!
Have fun,
Kevin
