Steering components

I'm about to upgrade my tie rod sleeves and was wondering if I should go with the hotchkis steel sleeves (62$) or another brands billet aluminum ? (35-45$) Surely the billets are stronger than stock right ?.. Also I was wondering if all 4 tie rod ends were the same or is there 2 of each 2 diff kinds ? Thanks !... And what y'all think bout tubular front control arms ? Just wondering .. And is it really hard to put a tubular k member in?

Re: Steering components

as far as the tie rod ends yes there is 2 of each 2 inner 2 outer they look the same but the inner ones have the grease fittings on the sides whereas the outer ones have them at the bottom for sleeves I used the regular ones from autozone I heard the aluminum r good I would suggest u replace the center link and idler arm as well and that's my 2 cents
