Tie rod ends st205

[Unterseeboot]

Over the last few days, I've noticed a creaking noise while going over speed bumps or breaking at slow speeds. Took it in to be inspected. Mechanics around here don't really have a lot of experience with my car so I figured I'd ask here. Aparently I need to replace my tie rod ends both sides front. After about a week looking for just the end piece I'm starting to think that you need to buy the entire tie rod to replace this.

Does anyone know if there is a Part Number for just the ends? Or do I just need to buiy the whole thing?

Thanks

George

you can get tie rod ends for the ST204, but i'm not sure if that is the same compatibility as the ST205. try this: search toyotapartszone.com under your VIN for tie rod ends, then search under a 95 celica GT and see if you wind up with the same part number. if you do, you can go to rockauto.com and order the raybestos ones for $6 a pop. if your rod ends are that bad, you may need to do an alignment after installation.
