Default Outer Tie Rods...

I have a 2006 QC 4x4. I have bought replacement outer tie rods from two different places and in both cases they were to large to thread on to the tie rods.

They check the computers and give me the recommended stock and they dont fit. Am I missing something? Anyone have this problem before?

Canadian Tire (one of the biggest retailers of car parts in Canada) doesnt even list the damn things.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. My truck is sitting in the driveway with no tie rods.

Look at the moog site. Don't picck the 4 door as that's for a Mega Cab. Pick the extended cab.

I think ES3538 is the correct one but I'm on my phone so you should confirm.

Yep, they are selling you the ones for the MegaCab which come up as quad cab. Happens to many people.
Now I can't use either!!! I have larger than stock tie rod ends but smaller than SFA ones as they came with my lift kit, so I have a completely different Moog part number, LOL...
