Default Tie rod recommendations?

While doing my steering rack rebuild I found my inner and outer tie rods are shot (or shot enough to warrant replacing them while im in there). Since Moog's gone the way of every private equity firm, does anyone have any brand recommendations? Was thinking mevotech supreme but want something that could survive track abuse.

Moog is fine. Private equity is not the kiss of death to everything.

We sell Mevotech and Moog and both are the same. Few warranties.

I have Mevo ball joints which looked decent to me via Rock Auto so I would say I'm not afraid of them.

For outer ends, there is also Napa pn: 269-4280

Moog front tie rods and Napa branded rear are the move.
