I just replace the outer tie rod ends on my 1999 Ford Windsar LX and it cost me $33.00 per outer tie rod end at my local (Seattle Wa) Schuck's Auto parts store. I did it my self and you will need the following tools. 21 mm box wrench for nut on tie rod end / 18 mm socket for castle nut and torque wrench / gear puller to pop out the end. Helpful tip: Loosen the tie rod nut 1/2 turn to allow you to unscrew the tie rod end. I do not know what repair jobs "book" for (semi-official time estimates repair shops use for pricing labor), but cannot imagine it's more than 1 hour.
$40-50 for parts + 1 hour labor ($75?) = $100-130

It should only cost about $50-$90 to replace the Flywheel of a 2000 Ford Windstar, is a person is doing the work themselves. If they are not it can cost $150+ depending on labor charges.
It sounds like the problem is a broken blend door. Before replacing the thermostat or any other component of the Windstar's HVAC system, be sure to check your blend door for functionality FIRST. The most common issue with heat or A/C in the late model Ford windstar is a broken blend door. A broken blend door actuator is almost as common as a broken blend door itself. Typically, the fix requires disassembling the entire dash and replacing the whole plenum box, which can be a costly repair.
