I need to replace both my tie rod ends on the front of my N/A 5000. The rest of the tie rod assembley looks fine but the ends are pretty rusty and bent. Any "easy" ways to get these off? I'm thinking lots of Kroil and maybe some heat? Thanks!

And it saves you an hour's worth of an upside-down-hammer-beating-on-the-rusted-end session. $20 to rent and they give you your money back when done and returning it. BTDT.

don't use a pickle fork, it just tears things up. When it pops it will sound like a gun going off (most amazing noise). I just went and got the right puller, maybe $38 and I haven't had to run to the store for one since.
