    I don't think that you should risk it popping out again. You may be driving down the highway the next time it happens. Buy a new tie rod end.

    That will happen if you run 18's or bigger & are lowered & don't cut the inner fender away. The tire will hit & the steering still as travel & will act as a press & pull the tie rod apart!
    Replace both sides & cut what ever it is hitting!!:cool:
