Could someone help with info on removal of the tie rod ends please? They are really tight and don't want to damage anything. Cheers Crackers

Im pretty sure you can just hit the housing of where the tie rod end bolt goes through but dont hit the actual tie rod otherwise you will damage it. Just hit the housing a few times hard after you undo the nut of course but to be safe dont take the nut all the way off just leave it a few threads on so if you miss the housing you wont damage threads. And when takinf the actual tie rod end off the rack ends count how many turns it takes to come off and put them back on the same way this might prevent having to get a wheel alignment afterwards.
