02 1500HD Center Link

I have an 02 1500HD that I am getting ready to replace all of the steering parts on, is the center link a wearable item, it doesn't look like it is but all of the parts store can get it.

The only thing that cam really go bad in them is the grease fittings for the inner tie rods, but other than that there are no joints or anything in them.

Re: 02 1500HD Center Link

The quality of many replacement parts is so poor now that I'd only replace the joints that are not in good shape and keep the rest as long as they're serviceable.
Maybe change the boots out if they look a little worse for wear.
