I cannot really find information on this but when I got an alignment after new tires it was noted I need "rf outer tie rod l/f bearing" <- can someone tell me what this is or guide me to a web page that could tell me? What do you think this should cost?

Here's a thread with some tie-rod information: https://montecarloforum.com/forum/ge...ds-hard-42028/

And left front bearing means the whole wheel hub assembly on these cars. Stick with Timken or ACDelco parts. If you search Wheel Hub Assembly, you will probably find a bunch of how-to threads on that as well.

Doing it yourself can be as cheap as about $150. Having a shop do the wheel hub assembly alone can be about $500

Is this "rf outer tie rod l/f bearing" one problem/one fix/one repair or is it two or what?

If they say this "rf outer tie rod l/f bearing" needs to be repaired, what, to someone like me, that "rf outer tie rod l/f bearing" looks like a foreign language to does it actually mean in terms I may understand?

Right Front Outer Tie Rod (passenger side, front)

Left Front Wheel Bearing (also known as Wheel Hub Assembly on these cars) (driver's side front)
