At 5 years and 56k my outer tierod on the drives side is shot. Ah well, NAPA says they have ones with grease fittings for $52 each.

Yup, I will do my bushings at the same time then the alignment.

Its installed, seems to be a pretty stout unit. Has a grease fitting and a blue boot, lets see how long I get out of this one.

Jay,
The one that went, was it factory?

Yeah, I got two bad outers on my AWD at 45k. Seems I can only get them from the dealer.
