Re: Torn ball joint boot

That is good news!.....
If you plan to keep the vehicle.....you might consider getting a replacement tie rod end with a grease fitting.
I would have a shop give it a good shakedown.....usually part of a good alignment job......and see how the rest of the front end is doing.
Reason being......I ended up needing inner and outer tie rod ends......and had them done at the same time.
Tie rod end replacement calls for a front end alignment when done.
