Just wondering if there was more than 1 test to see if tierods are bad other than pulling and pushing on the tire?...i ask b/c the mechanic that inspected told me that they were but there isnt any play in them and the boot is fine no major cracks or holes...

im installing new ball joints (moog) b/c they were def shot...

should i check the tierods after the new balljoints are in?...

Thanks Chas
