Stubborn tie rod end removal
I've been working on the steering of my '70 C20. I'm replacing all the tie rods, and have gotten three of the four out using the traditional methods (tie rod separator fork, loosening the castle nut and tapping it with a hammer, etc.), but the drivers outer tie rod is being very stubborn. I've soaked it with penetrating oil several times. I've hammered on it for over an hour. I even got out my propane torch and heated it up, but nothing seems to be working.
Does anyone have any good ideas?
