Default Failed State Inspection cuz of a few little things.

I failed because I need new...
-Inner Tie Rods
-Third Brake light ain't working
-Wipers front and back
-Front Tires

I'm not having a problem with everything else except the inner tie rods. I shop online and advance auto and I only see "inner tie rod end." Are those different than inner tie rods or is inner tie rod end just the official name? Just want to make sure I'm getting the right thing. Reason I need new ones is there's play on the old ones. If I can just pick them up in store I'll pick them up instead of waiting for shipping.

Yeah its just the tie rod ends. There are inner and outer ones. That way you don't have to replace the whole tie rod.

I ended up buying a pair of new ones. $25 each for just the ends or $35 for a pair of whole inner ones figured with all the mileage I got might as well. Free shipping. Next is third brake light and wiper. Prolly a dirty connection somewhere or its really the bulb I'll have it checked when my mechanic installs the tie rods. Tires are BF Goodrich All Terrains 31 x 10.5s. I'll most likely get it the day I get it reinspected. Tell the guy to slap them on and run the re-test.

Really want this inspection crap out of the way. Already got some Gibson headers lined up and the tubing for the ram air intake is already chilling in the back. Now if only I can find a used 52mm throttle body and a Force II catback I'll be done so I can move on to saving up for the summer ride.
