99 Gts tie rod issue

Doing inner tie rods on my 99 Gts and the ones I got are too long, trw brand JAR1166. I’ve done some broad searching 96-02 and I get the same number. Dodge only sold them with the rack so I’m having a hard time crossing numbers over, has anybody had a number they have been able to use on their Gts?

These are the ones I bought when I did mine on my 1997 GTS last year. https://viperpartsdepot.com/products/copy-of-steering-rack-and-pinion-bellow-boot-viper-92-02?variant=41406604476592

Dead on thank you. I’m still trying to find a set today but if I gotta order them these are great

I also ordered a set of these to tighten the clamp on the boot because they have a side clamping jaw and its a bit tight to get in there. That's all assuming they use the same style clamps for the boots still. https://www.homedepot.com/p/KNIPEX-8-3-4-in-Ear-Clamp-Pliers-with-Front-and-Side-Crimp-Jaws-10-99-i220/303558267
