Looking for absolute best quality tie rod ends, both inner and outer. Preferably sealed and not greasable, but not mandatory.

Any suggestions are appreciated, thanks

Consensus seems to be that Japanese made 555 are preferred, but they have zirks. You probably already knew that. Seems hit and miss whether you'll actually get 555s when ordering Moog brand these days. Maybe try Amayama and order direct from Japan if you have part #s. Or go with Troy's rod end conversion. You could ask someone on the Down Under Datsuns FB group. Maybe the Aussies have a good option.
