Stuck tie rod

Any tips for this. I've tried some large vice grips, a few big pipe wrenches and heating the threaded ends up.

Try to move the center of the rod? Try to move the ends one at a time?

Thanks

beat the hell out of it. =D
not the tie-rod end itself, but the linkage it's attaching to. it usually frees the tie-rod end and it will fall right out. works for trac-bar too.

Are you trying to remove the tie rod ends or are you trying to move the adjuster in the center of the tie rod? Use PB penetrating lubricant (let it work for awhile) and if you are removing the tre then use a pickle fork and a large hammer. The adjuster should move after loosening the bolts but may require some heat.

Thanks guys I guess there is no excuse for not using brute strength

I forgot to mention im just trying to adjust it for alignment.

if your trying to adjust the alignment you dont have to take off the tre, just loosen up the end peices of the center tube and spin them untill the toe in/out is right, you may need some heat though,.
