Is this something that should be changed in pairs or is it OK to just do one side? Also is this something relatively easy to change or is it difficult or best left to a pro?
There is an inner tie rod end, and an outer tie rod end, and they are different left and right sides.
Its also a Subaru only part.
For the inner tie rod it takes special wrenches.
The outer is easier.
The most important thing is to count the amount of revolutions that it takeas to remove it, usually around 16-18 and install the new one to the same spec.
Bring it on down and I can show you how!




They are MUCH easier on a lift!
