Rear Inner Compensator Link/Tie Rod End for Ford Explorer, Lincoln Aviator

The Moog Problem Solver design (#ES800560) is now available for 2002-2005 Ford Explorer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator models. It was developed in response to technician requests for a more durable component that eliminates the need to replace the entire rear link assembly on these applications.
"Until now, technicians have had to replace the entire assembly with parts featuring the original design. The new Moog Problem Solver part now allows the installer to replace only the failed component and offers a significantly more robust and longer lasting solution that can help prevent comebacks and costly repairs," said Mark Boyle, director, steering and suspension products, Federal-Mogul.

That's great. Do they make an outer as well? (I need one)

I need an outer boot, or the outer end w/ boot would be ok too. Busted the rubber boot while removing the link to service the rear wheel bearings. Must be very careful with any tools you use to get these links off, so you don't rip the boots!
