Tie rod ends

Well I was putting my car back together and I guess the myth about the 18 inch rims is true. They KILL your suspention. The tie rod ends are SHOT both of them came apart ..I had trouble putting the drivers side one back on because the rubber was ALL gone. They both have an insane amount of play and now when I take left I hear a grinding type sound ..Im sure its the tie rods fault. My car does not handle like it used to now. My shocks are in great condition also. When I go to take turns there is SO much oversteer that it scares me. Also on my A arms the rubber part at the corner that atatches to the wheel is also shot.

Now my question is, Can I put my A arms and tie rod ends from my late 85 944 with power steering into my 944s2 with power steering?

I think you need late offset tie rod ends (87+) and for power steering.
