This saved me. I was only gonna replace the outer on a 94 geo metro and after watching the video I realized the inner was also bad (I also did the thumbs down after testing it, lol).
It took a few weeks to get the parts (got a new clean boot kit, too), but the alternative would be much worse (aka having the steering wheel lose control on the interstate). Thanks very much.

very helpful, confirms my doubts upon replacing my passenger tie rods and gives me something to test the driver's side with!

@khalilmkokash - check your brake rotors for warpage, replace or cut them.

Does it happen when you brake..? Or just at all times?
I thought they only stood firm for a few thousand miles ... anyhow mines drop like that too and I have a clunk I think is coming from the rack , I checked the inners and cant see movement in them I have a video of it . may need a new rack.

@jasmats They should still be firm.. even after a while.. When they flop - they are done.

@danjreed that is not how to test an inner tie rod, jack up the car have some one shake the tire back and forth (not up and down) while you look for loosness from the inner and outer tie rods
