Default Track Bar

I just put a new rusty's track bar on yesterday and i noticed there was movement in the tie rod end of the track bar. when i turned the wheel it was dropping down and then going back up the the bolt was not moving up and down. it is inside where the knuckle is. what is wrong? is it just a faulty track bar?

I have the same problem with mine!! took me a while to figure out what the clunk was every time I turned the wheel... so I went with the long shot idea to grease the tie rod end...still some movement but no more annoying clunking noise....let me know what you find out =)

yeah, i put some grease in it and i couldnt feel it through the steering wheel but it still does it. there wouldnt be like a little spring inside for the specific movement would there, i wouldnt think so.
