91 ls400 replacing both inner and outter tie rods
Im replacing the inner and outter tie rods. I just wanted to know if there is anything else I can replace while im doing this that won't be too bad and costly to replace?
Thanks

May as well do the lower ball joint since you will have them half disconnected anyway. Do you have original tie rods? How many miles?

Depending on the mileage of your LS and the service history/last time you replaced other suspension/steering parts, I'd recommend replacing the lower ball joints while you're there. (Unless they were replaced not so long ago)...Here's a link to some affordable OEM balljoints. I'm located in So-cal and it came to approx. $111 (for BOTH) shipped to my door. Goodluck!

My rear lower shock mount bolt was also seized to the sleeve. In that case I was able to use a hand grinder to cut the bolts out.
