Whiteline RCK - Tie Rod End Failure After 50K-60K
Is it normal to be replacing tie rod ends at 50,000 - 60,000 KM?
I am on my second set of tie rod ends from Whiteline. They send me a second set under warranty. I have 155,000km on the car right now and the tie rod ends are loose again. The car is daily driven. I've only track the car maybe 5 times. I have the GTWorx tarmac springs and Whiteline rear camber arms. I am on my 4 set of summer tires and 3 set of winter tires. Tires have been worn out due to excessive camber wear from failed tie rod end or rear camber bolts. Alignment has been set to stock specs.

Mine are 30k miles going strong. I had to replace the boots on them because they melted. I noticed the grease in them was pretty dried out. So I packed the new boots with fresh grease before installing them. Hopefully that helps them last.
