When you say will not crank over,do you mean it won't run or the starter won't turn the engine to start?
IF the starter is turning the engine BUT it won't start,look on the side panel forward of the passenger door under the glove compartment area,you will see a hole.put your finger in and push down on the fuel reset switch,the car should run now.
SOURCE: replacing inner tie rod passenger side
remove your wheel to access before you remove tie rod mark the thread on the rack side, then its a matter of removing the split pin and loosening off the nut closes to the wheel then give it a good wack dont hit the thread once its free leave it until you crack the nut on the rack side once you have done this completely remove the old tie rod install the new one and wind it on to the position where you have marked and then put it back together your alignment still might not be accurate though it shouldnt be far out i would suggest a wheel alignment afterwards
SOURCE: Mechanic says the front inner tie rods need replacement
They do not wear out that fast, 80,000 miles is a typical replacement point in your Taurus., get a 2nd opinion, wobble can also be caused by bad tires, i.e. a separated tire cord inside the tire. rotated the tires and see if it helps the problem, also an alignment is a good idea.

This could be a lot of things, CV joint, tie rods, wheel bearings, even loose lug nuts.
SOURCE: hydro planed and rear wheel hit curb, bent in 45 degrees
on rear wheel drive the hub and bearing assembly is connected to an axle.the axle will have to be replaced more than likely.in a front wheel drive with independent rear suspension,an upper and or lower control arm and hub.either way is expensive and your insurance deductible will be alot cheaper than the 2500 to 3000 dollars it will take to repair it.
SOURCE: inner tie rod end on passenger side needs replaced
You will definately need an expert to handle this because it is in a tight compartment.
Good luck.
