Default hachi tie rod removal/installation

okay big problem here

everybody on here already knows my front suspension is fucked

but now i have my new outer tie rod to begin new suspension installation but i hit a snag

the old outer tie rod will not come off of the inner tie rod
they both just spin away because of the ball joint along with there basically oxidized/rusted together

therfore i cannot start installation till i get the old one off

does anybody have any suggestions as to htf do i get the outer tie rod off

somebody please help

my drifting depends on it

Why would anyone pay someone to do this? Just take a big wrench and take it off at the ball joint on the rack end. I've done this several times and it's pretty easy. If you want I'll come over and help you out

hey mark i already told you it was rusted on it either has to be heated or cut off

the one that is already on there is in good shape it just cant be nutted (the bolt that is) (plus the rust led to strippage of all angled thingys) due to a nice sledge impact but the tie rod has been spot welded to the strut casing spacer so i no longer need to fuck with the tie rod so nobody else respond

thank you
