Inner Tie Rod Dilemma

Inner Tie Rod Dilemma
Have a bent driver inner tie rod... cannot find proper replacement... have tried a few inner tie rods and all are too big to fit with the steering rack.
2008 G37 S Coupe
Steering rack was replaced in 2012 with 49001-JL07E
for whatever reason the inner tie rod ends are smaller on this one. Anyone else run into this? dealer is useless...
Thank you all!

One option is to buy each of the possible tie rods and return the ones that dont fit. Moog parts are rock solid.

as an example, this is from rock auto. I have makes the relevant information:
AAnd this being from moog's website for the 370z tie rod, which we know is an M18x1:
Your best bet is to measure you rack side stud prior to ordering and base the order on the model year that the size fits into (aka if you have a 2012 but it measures M18, then order a pre 2011 tie rod)
