He was giving the price for the 4kq front tie rods not Ur-q.
I wish ur-q tie rods were $50.
The passenger side is non adjustable and one piece (i.e. the tie rod end is shot
you have to get the entire rod).  Unless you modify the broken one to accept 5kt
tie rod ends.
I'll be doing that this spring in the Ur-q and done it on the Coupe Turbo (with
exception that Coupe unit takes 4kq tie rod ends).
