Squeak coming from the rear drivers side

[navyfc117]

2004 with 92k miles. I believe it's the rear tie rod end? Just looking at them the rubber part is not the same as the passengers side. Also from my searching someone mentioned in another thread that it could be the shocks. Those are also stock with 92k miles. I know those need to get replaced anyways but I was wanting to do coilovers when I replaced them. Anyone had the rear tie rod squeak before?

1st off I can not find the rear tie rod end part at any part store. Called ford and they don't make the part anymore so I got the part number of xr3z5k848ba. Only thing I can find is MM ones that are 250 for the pair (MMIRSTR-2)

Last off can I buy shocks that are already notched for coilovers and just add coilover later?

THanks

Full tilt boogie racing also has rear tie rods, although around the same price.

Yes, you can buy shocks from maximum motorsports that are grooved. When you buy coilovers from them later they give you a $40 discount.
