yep, thats when i had to do mine too about 100k. my tie rods looked just like yours. i got the sway bar end links from cj`s. they were a little thinner than oem but they had joints that you can put a end wrench on the back while you tighten the nuts. i also did the frt control arms/ball joints. used the frpp arms. in the last yr they have gone up $150 if i saw it right. everything is going up lately.

My car is getting up there in miles and I may have to get these done eventually. About how much did it cost for parts? Can you give me a reasonable estimate for labor too? It's always good to keep track of these things because they will need to be done in the future at some point
