hi
my sister got this 2000 sonima pickup truck went to get safeyed and she gave me list to fix

now from the cert sheet i dont know exactly what they trying to say is it both left and right or just the left side they never told her

but what it says is

Inner Tie Rode With New
Sleeve and Left Outer Tie Rod
To Align


thats how they wrote it now i know the tie rod ends but whats the inner and is it saying for both left and right to replace inner ? or not 100% sure and how hard is it

That may be called an adjuster by the parts houses.
