tie rods?

Hey guys how do you know when to change your tie rods? I have 130k on my car and I bought it at 116k. I have never changed them yet. Is there a particular brand that is good? Feedback guys thanks!

Moog brand available thru most parts stores
use their end links for the sway bars too

are the tie rod boots torn, or there is play in the part when you apply pressure to it?
will it hold an alignment?
fails any of those = thats when you replace them
130 is nothing!

if boots good, and all fittings tight- use silicone spray lube on the boots to help keep them soft
