These pics aren't super clear and I'm on my phone, so its hard to say exactly. It does look like a tie rod. I if it is behind the wheel (closer to the door) I think that would be the inner tie rod. Ask the parts guys though.

You can get them cheaper at advance auto our where ever you want to go, but you definitely need an alignment after its fixed.

Yeah we need better pics to really help you out. But it looks like your talking about your tie rod. if the part that is bent has the boot then that is your inner tie rod. If the part bent is closer to the wheel then it is your outer tie rod. POst a better pic and ill be able to let you know for sure.

I agree with Joe. You may need to replace the tie rod and at least the outer end because it screws into the tie rod and may be bent inside of it.

In my previous post on this thread I was thinking that there were two tie rods per wheel for some reason, haha!
