Default Tie Rod question

Hi Guys,

I am in the process of installing my new tie rod ends and solid sleeves but have a question regarding the left/right tie rod ends. I know each side (passenger and driver) has a left and a right tie rod end attached to the sleeve but does it matter which one is on the inner and outer of each side?

Meaning, Passenger side Left hand tie rod on outer end and right hand on inner end and same with the Drivers side? or just the opposite?

Thanks for any insight.

R/Chris.

Here is the actual address of the tie rod assembly paper. It is in Microsoft Word format.
