Default Tie Rods!?

hey guys I have a 97 dodge 1500 4x4 and I replaced all my tie rod components last year about 17,000 miles ago with moog. I was thinking about replacing them again with XRF but my only concern is if I need to. what are some signs that your tie rods are worn and need replacing? also if anyone has experience with XRF products id like to know if they are worth the $227 for the entire kit.
thanks

XRF reportedly makes good stuff. But, with the low miles you have on yours, I would check for slop first, if you don't find any, then leave them on there.

Whit only 17k on them they should be fine. Don't forget to grease them periodically!
