Inner Tie Rod Part Help

In the process of changing out the inner tie rods on an 03. I purchased Moog EV427 replacements from Rock Auto. This part is longer than the stock part. Anyone run into this issue? Due to the longer length, it won't work with the outer tie rod.

Thanks in advance.

That's because you ordered the wrong tie rod, you need EV458...

Rock Auto screwed you. The EV427 is for a 2002-2006 Altima.

Always check the manufacturer website to cross reference part numbers. I had to when I went into a local parts chain store and almost bought the wrong item number.
