Replace Inner Tie Rods

I need to replace my axles so while I have it apart, I'm going to overhaul the suspension. I have 160k miles on a 2009. Question...do you normally replace the inner tie rods? I don't think I have any symptoms of a bad one. However, if I have everything apart should I do it?

Thoughts/opinions?

I would just because I am in there. It would be obvious though once you get everything apart because the stalk would have some serious play. Those rods are like 20-25 bucks a piece so I would do it. I just tore down and replaced most of my suspension on my other car, 2008 G35 with like 190k miles on it and i did both sets of rods for sure.

Not sure if have already installed the Inner TR Ends, but I would recommend you do it while you have the clearance. (at least the rotors out of the way)
I just replaced inner/outer on my 09, it was pretty simple but would have been much easier with more clearance to get the boots secured
