Tie Rods

[tedward]

I went to a Pepboys to get my oil change and as I came back to pick up the tahoe, they informed me that my " Idlerarm - both inner and outer tie rod ends and sleeve needs to be replaced eventually, He said that my front end is loose."...He asked me if I felt any vibrations while driving from the wheels and I said no, nothing out of the ordinary...My question is, how do I know if I need to replace the tie rods? After I left there, I went to my place to get the tires rotated, and when they took off the tires, I didnt see anything wrong with the tie rods, but then again I dont really know what Im looking at. Any help would be great! Thanks!

Too much movement is bad ... not sure why you would need sleeves replaced unless they were bent ...
