It's not always necessary to replace tie rods when replacing a rack and pinion, but it is often recommended. If the tie rods show signs of wear, damage, or play, they should be replaced to ensure proper steering performance and alignment. Additionally, since the labor for replacing the rack and pinion involves accessing the tie rods, doing both at the same time can save on future labor costs. Always consult a mechanic for a thorough inspection before making a decision.
