So my car is approaching 80k on the clock. I've started to notice that the steering is getting a little sloppy, and believe that the tie rod ends could be getting worn out. Is my assumption correct? Should I just get OEM replacement? or is there an upgraded/better choice?

bump for answers. I need to do my LCA bushings this winter and was probably gonna do ball joints and tie rod ends while I'm there. I was thinking MOOG maybe?
I've put about 30K miles on my AutoZone tie rod ends and no problem. If I remember correctly, you need to shorten the threaded section by 3/8 of an inch.
i picked up a set o MOOG tie rod ends from advance auto, they are alot beefier and the OEM ones and have a zirc fitting so you can re-grease them as necessary
