I'm doing some off-season maintenance and replacing my tie rods ('11 GT). I bought Motorcraft inners and outers, but they don't come with jam nuts or nuts for the outers (attaching to the spindle).
I took apart my old ones to get the jam nuts and re-use them, but it was a pain in the a$$.
The nuts on the outers are rusty and ugly. They're flange nuts with a nyloc inset, so not something a hardware store would have. Tasca lists them individually, but after I ordered them I got an email saying they were back-ordered with no delivery date. I'm still searching for replacements.
I bought Motorcraft because I thought I was getting quality parts. I'm not so sure about that now.
