Default Just changed tie-rod end

Its a bitch unless you have a tie-rod puller. thank god my friend down the road did. I tryed everything to get it off the nuckle...you have to use a puller.....count your rotation when taking it off so the new one is in the same place.... my back hurts...

A big hammer usually does the trick too

-Yep. Back the nut off until it is flush with the threads on the old tie rod then give it a whack with a hammer. Usually only one or two hits is all it takes.
