Like the title says. My car was hit and it bent my passengers side outer tie rod well heres a picture...

Number 1 is the tie rod i have to replace that and the bent part is that number 3 well the bar not the boot.... that lil bar that goes inside the boot but closer to the tie rod...

How can i remove this and install it...

Please dont tell me i have to pull out my engine to do this...

I think its connect or is part of the Steering Gear Rack..??

PLEASE SOMEONE HELP... IM PRETTY CONFUSED...

I have removed all the strut/spring, tire, rotor, hub, caliper.. axle.. , fender etc...

all u see is the lower control arm and the tie rod from my point of view...

also i dont feel like buying the full system cause the other side is good....

 

Bump

 

u probably bent the inner tie rod. there is a special tool that u can use to take it off. i included a link of what the tools look like. u can always try to use a big plier or vice grip to loosen it if there is enough room.

Yes u are correct i bent the Inner Tie rod cause its the tie rod between the boot and outer tie rod. so has to be the inner tie rod. thanks man for that link. do those really work well?
