    Yeah, didn't budge when I tried those either.

    Going to try to find a tie rod or pitman arm puller that might work on them to rent.

    They'll rub the control arm a little and rub the frame at full lock. But my truck had em for 5 years. Very doable.

    STOP hitting the tie rod with a hammer.

    You'll just fuck up the threads or the nut.

    Go to the store and rent the large pitman puller for free and that will pop it out with ease

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Usually just hitting the side of cast part on the knuckle works, not sure why his is so siezed.

    @PcBuilder14 Just buy the puller, tools are a good investment.

    Meh, put the nut on the thread upside down, make the top of the nut (Technically the bottom) flush with the top of the threads and hammer the shit out of it with a BFH after you spray the whole thing with penetrating fluid.

    Because he is in Missouri and they salt the roads even if there is a 10% chance of snow like a fat kid pouring powder sugar on his donut. lol

    Yeah.
    Never said I was hitting the tie rod itself. I'm hitting the flat portion of the lower ball joint that the tie rod is next to.

    Got it. Will see if any stores have them later tonight.
    For real. Will hopefully be getting out of this state and going to one that is rust free soon.

    I did what @95 taco said for the tie rod ends. The uppers in the stock UCAs were a different story...
