Inner tie rod end keeps giving out immediately after install?

I have been having a problem with the inner tie rod end of the driver side of the vehicle. It has been giving out immediately and I have tried to replace it three different times with different brand parts. Starts off with a little play and then gradually becomes more and more at the ball bearing's part that connects to the rack. What can keep causing these parts to immediately keep giving out? Am I installing it wrong or what causes this? It's not the steering pinion. It's the inner tie rod ball that keeps getting play allowing the wheel to wobble. I have been using the clamps to remove and install the tie rod end.
