Default Tie rod ends

Hey y’all! Quick question. Is there a difference with the tie rod ends for inner/Outter and left right sides? I’m looking at pics and really can’t tell if it even makes a difference on where they go. Thanks in advance!

Yes, they do look the same but are different. We had this question a bit ago, and I went and looked at mine. If memory is serving me correctly, one side is reverse thread and that is the difference.

I can look again to double check, but I'm fairly certain that's what it was.

Thank you so much! I wasn’t sure the difference because they look so familiar. I will have to figure out which part number I have and then buy the ones that I don’t have. Thanks again so much!
