Ok,the drivers side outer tie rod end is loose on my car. Its got almost 140k on it, and the rubber is torn and its got about 3/32 play in it. Here's the thing. I've got to drive from NYC to Rhode Island for a 10am meeting, and then drive back tomorrow. Is it serious enough that I should postpone, or could I concievably drive on it. I do have all my tools with me, so I could change it after my meeting up there, if I can find the part. Whats the concencus?
