    Tie Rod End Size

    Why can't you ask for a 91 Explorer Tie Rod? IMO that looks like a factory tie rod and adjusting sleeve. I would try the Explorer before i try crossing more parts.

    Any help on how to install a new starter?

    bought the wrong antifreeze

    Its not so much they are worried About the Aluminum Parts in the system, but its the seals. They are made from different composites than "green" seals. Follow OEM specs for what kind of fluid to use, just not necessarily the time frame in which to change it
