Steering parts.

[Alexx]

My front wheels are loose. Two tie- rods are dead and I need to replace them. What brand should I pick ? If I change the entire assembly, will the securing plate come with the assembly or do I need to order the plate from the dealership ?

I just ordered the entire setup to replace both my tie rods. I ordered mine through autohausaz.com. It was 68.50 shipped. The locking plates are not included when you order tie rods. They have to be ordered separately.
Opinions on brands will vary...I bought the Karlyn brand. If you want to pay 3x the price go with Lemfoerder. Below is the list with part numbers:
