Some guy told me Rotors, is that right? to buy this part what should I be looking for? whats the right name if possoble part #.
Is not the Steering Gear Assembly it self right?

RE: steering problem...
Parts are not expensive.
Outer tie rod needs to have the jam nut loosened, be removed from the knuckle and then it unthreads from the inner tie rod.
Inner tie rod needs to have the boot removed from the gear, slide it off the tie rod and untread the tie rod from the steering gear. Use a little loctite when putting the inner tie rod back on. The car will need to be aligned after to correct the toe.
Without knowing you I can't say if it is a job you can or can notdo.

If you are just going to replace the part that your A points to you need an "inner tie rod". If you where careful when removing the boot you can reuse the boot and clamp that went around the boot to hold it to the gear, if not a zip tie will work
