« on: September 07, 2009 - 05:08:51 PM »
Trying to replace the inner and outer tie rod ends and before i totally beat the hell out of them with a hammer can someone tell if there is a tool or trick to knocking them out from the arm?

AutoZone rents a tool for those who dont have it.   Tie rod fork  manual with hammer or air impact gone type.  Also there is a tool that will push it right off.  Wade Bullit99 has a whole kit. It is like 90 bucks or so, but it has all the good front end pullers in it
