I've had their setup sitting in my garage for nearly a year, so I don't yet have an opinion on it when installed, but I can tell you that the difference between the OEM tie rod and the Wildhorses one is that the Wildhorses one has three pieces of tie rod and two sleeves. Look at your stock rod. See where on the passenger side the long tie rod and short one are connected by a sleeve? Wildhorses setup looks like that on both the driver and passenger sides. The main point of this setup is to covert from the inverted y linkage to the earlier setup.

I bought the whole set-up because what I had was over 30 yrs old. The tie rod ends are adjustable but for me I liked the fact that you can replace the tie rod ends without buying the entire arm.
