Default Tie Rod Ends replacement help??

I am replacing my worn out tie rod ends on my 04 SP 500. It only has 1000 mles on it, but they are way gone. When I took one of them off, the ball part just fell out, nothing was holding it in. Kind of disappointing for only 1000 miles, but anyway.
First, is "All *****" a good brand? I can get all 4 ends for about $77 off eBay, shipping and all. Two of them are good, but while I've got them off, I'm going to do all 4. Anyone have any experience with any other brand?
Second. How do you put them back on the right way? I now know I should have marked them some how, to know where they needed to be adjusted, but I didn't. So now, how do I know when they are the right lenght? Do I just tighten then down all the way, or what?
Thanks for the help in advance!!

ive heard allballs is good. to know where they go i measure the front inbetween the tires and at the back inbetween the tires and make them equal so its runs good.

77 bucks seems like a not too bad price
