My kit came with everything I needed, except for the tools. Install was really easy with Wayne's 101 project book. I very much enjoy the difference in feel. Fun project, especially when re-aligning the front (I had it aligned any way, but was only 1/2 a degree off!).

Turbo tie rod ends will NOT work with standard tie rods!

You should only need the (2) tie-rod ends, (2) spacers that fit between the tie rods and the steering rack, & (2) new boots. If you bought your tie-rods in kit form they should come with everything above. If you just have the tie rod end without the threaded rod that connects into the steering rack, you'll also need the turbo version of the rod. The turbo version eliminates the slop by using a ball and socket connection rather than a rubber bushing as used on the std 911.
