tie rod end busted, replacing it = alignment?
 

I busted a tie rod end but its not really noticible in car - if i replace it, will i have to get an alignment for any reason?

yeah id align it after you replace it. your toe setting is going to be way out of whack

if you broke a tie rod, it would be very noticable...are you talking about a tie rod or an endlink?

he's talking about the tie rod end... aka, that ball joint that bolts to the strut.
