I just recently changed both tie rod ends and now i am getting a rubbing sound from the passenger side front wheel i have an appointment for an alignment on Friday... am I just overreacting thinking I have a bad wheel bearing or just going crazy

It's likely the alignment. If the wheel bearing needs to be changed after, this will not affect the alignment.

No harm done and just coincidence that it died at the same time. Not sure where you're getting it but I highly recommend Timken. Stay away from anything made in China, including Raybestos, which I had a very bad experience with.

I've got a couple I got off of ebay a few months ago for $76 per pair. The Timkens were about $120. I think Fishsticks has also been running some cheap ones off of ebay.
