02 REAR tie rod end.

[jeffescortlx]

I think it's called a stabilizer alignment adjuster or somthing like that. But it look's just like a tie rod end, but it's for the rear hub. Well anyways the drivers side one has a torn boot and it's starting to get sloppy so I want to replace it before it fall's apart.

The problem is since I dont know the correct name for it I have'nt been able to find it at any local parts store. And the Ford Dealer want's $140 just for the part.

Any one replace one of these? Where did you get the part, and how much was it?

Thanks for the post. I just got back from the dealer, $138 + Tax.
I tried another parts store and they also said it's only availible at the dealer.

The bad part is it's on back order for a month and half. :thumbdwn:

The part number is 2L2Z*5A972*AA And the description is just "link".
