i have a1992 lexus ls400.
Recently the front drivers side tire has started to shake when i slow down( press on the brake).
I know that it needs a new front end allignment.
I took it a Les Schwab and they told me that i needed new tie rods and ball joints.
would that solve my problem??
and i dont know what kind i have to buy.
i dont want to get ripped off by them.

how many tie rods do i need??
thanks


Some say that there is a outer and inner right tie rod?? is that the same. so if i was going to get new tie rods would i only need to get a drivers and a passangers side??

Hi there,

There's one tie rod end & one lower ball joint per side. Check the link below to find your parts and a price.
