C5 steering and handling problem (outer tie rods)

my left front outer tie rod is worn out. i am planing to change the front outer tie rod to moog or raybestos pro grade. i am not sure which one is better. and i am not sure if they will work fine with the OEM rear outer tie rods. any advise?

Go with the Moog.

How many miles on the car? Do the rears show any excess play?

The rear seems fine. Only the front. All in the sudden it start shaking. I might have to change the rack and pinion too.

I'd get some professional advice, and not just throw stuff at the car till the problem goes away. That could get VERY expensive....
