The installation was simple and took about 90 minutes. I found the issue by lifting the front wheel off the ground, grabbing the wheel which would had play/movement from side to side but not up and down. The old part was very worn compared to the new with about 15,000 miles on the cart.

Did it come with instructions on how to replace them and not misalign the front end?
I take it goes straight down the road and don't crab. steering wheel still straight, and it don't pull left or right? Most will count the threads exposed or measure to make sure get the new tie rod to exact length so you don't misalign the front end?
Another way to check is mark the tires in the exact middle (3 O'clock , measure across, now move the cart without moving the steering wheel till the marks are on the opposite side (9 O'clock) and measure, compare the two measurements. If off adjust the one or both that looks crooked or you get the same measurement.
