Im looking on rcm and there are 4 different kinds. I plan to track my car a few times a year but nothing major, mostly a street car. Do I need the HD ones or are the regular ones just fine? What is the benefit of having the HD low friction ones? The last one seems best, but are sealed not as good as the greaseable ones?

Heres what I have to choose from:

38.99/each- TRW Extra Heavy-Duty Greaseable Outer Tie Rod End
1989-95 Taurus/SHO/Sable
Low-Friction design!
Extra Heavy-Duty, with grease fitting
Includes new castle nut and cotter pin
Made in USA or Mexico

18.99/each- TRW or MOOG Standard Greaseable Outer Tie Rod End
1989-95 Taurus/SHO/Sable
Standard-Duty, with grease fitting
Includes new castle nut and cotter pin
Made in USA or Mexico

29.99/each- TRW or MOOG Heavy-Duty Greaseable Outer Tie Rod End
1989-95 Taurus/SHO/Sable
Low-Friction design!
Heavy-Duty, with grease fitting
Includes new castle nut and cotter pin
Made in USA or Mexico

24.99/each- TRW Heavy-Duty Sealed Outer Tie Rod End
1989-95 Taurus/SHO/Sable
Improved Low-Friction design!
Heavy-Duty, sealed (non-greaseable)
Includes new castle nut and cotter pin
Made in USA or Mexico

Both TRW and Moog only make one TRE (they're both part of the same company - Federal-Mogul).

Part number is ES2513R/RL

Neither brand line currently offers a three-level product assortment. Not sure what RCM is actually offering for those prices.

Personally, I'd just order the Moog ES2513R from rockauto. You'll get a good price, know exactly what you're getting, and have good communications with the vendor in the meantime. Don't forget the 5% discount code!
