Technician A is correct because tie rod ends indeed connect the steering linkage to the steering knuckles, allowing for steering input to be transferred to the wheels. Technician B is also correct because some ball and socket joints, including certain tie rod ends and other suspension components, are designed with a sealed, non-serviceable design that incorporates rubber or other materials to eliminate the need for external lubrication.
