    Advice needed on parts to buy.

    Greetings!
    A family friends e60 520d failed the NCT as track rod end is already worn.
    The car went to Conlans a week before and stated that the inner tie rod will be the only one to be changed along with
    some clips. Just want to ask your expert
    advise if is it 1 piece track rod end plus
    inner tie rod or will a pair of track rod end be enough to buy?
    Below are the NCT report and the dealers guesstimate.
    Thanks Y'all!
