Part help inner tie rod

[98RedGTS]

I can't seem to find an inner tie rod that will work. I ordered the one from autozone that said it would fit and it was 2 inches to long and the section used to spin it for the alignment was right at the threads so I could not cut them and lengthen the threads. I'm kind of SOL at the moment. Got all my bushings replaced and ball joints but can't reassemble until I find the inner tie rod (both are shot). Can't imagine people are rebuilding the whole rack just for tie rod ends and you know those rebuilding the rack can get some so there has to be a part number out there.

Saw a thread with direct replacements but the link was dead.

While at it, anyone have the cross reference for the ball joint boots without the viper tax? If not I will get the mopar ones, just can't imagine $30+ each is going rate for a boot.

Try Rock auto.

Did you find some there? All I see is outer ones.

Wish I had these. Got everything cleaned up and now stuck with this just sitting around.

Thank you! No clue why that never pulled up in my searches. I should stop searching by 98 and start using 2002.

Spoke to soon. Went to order and noticed they are male thread on the power steering rack side. Viper is female. I'll message them to let them know it won't work on a viper. I found these though after changing my search to 2002. The description looks right. I'll advise once they come in.

I faced this same issue last year. This thread shows what I did and the ones I bought. FYI the same tie rod ends work for the rear as well.

Parts came in and they look to be nice pieces. Anything is better than what came off though.
