Default 2005 Outer Tie Rod End.

New here, for the life of me i can't remove the old outer tie rod end. The bolt that holds the tie rod to the wheel knuckle broke. There is no other bolt to break loose behind the tie rod end. Any info would be helpful.Name:  spacer.gif

Heat, lots of heat. If the tie rod end is ruined and not to be reused then heat that sucker til it glows if needed. (It's going to smoke allot with the grease and rubber though. Don't breath the smoke and only do it outside.) Then use a ball joint fork to wedge it free. A BFH tends to distort the hole in the knuckle so be careful if using one of those.
