Haha im trying man
Going to get it aligned tomorrow
Well turns out i need a new tie rod outer only on my passenger side. I also have to get some new boots and repacjk my cv joints while im down there
Yet another problem arrises.lost my wheel nut key.
Ehh no clue what brand they are. I have had them since before i got this car. Going to head to Sears today. Think they have something to get them off.
no wheel nut key sounds like get new lugs nuts. just use a vicegrip on the ones that are locked down.
I got them off today with a bolt breaker socket. That was a huge pain in the ass. Anyways hopefully can work on her tomorrow
Yeah hit one wheel with hammer but its okay they need to be sanded down anyway
Well went to change out my passenger outer tie rod today before i continue little ranting is needed f**k this pos bull s**t f**knugget crap pile underneath my car ok back to story could not get the castle nut off. Ended up stripping it completely after doing that got dremel out and went to work on cutting it off. I got it all cut off and i got her loose in the back. Well for the life of me i tried everything i had to get her off. Ohhh no the stud portion is completely jammed in there. Finally said f**k it put tire back on tried few small launches to see if it would break free. No luck so now it is just sitting there until i find a new way. Only thing i didnt try is ball joing seperator. Just did not care about buying or renting one. Atleadt the launches were fun
Did u take the pin out of the end before u took the castle nut off?
Since u r replacing tie rods u can just hammer them out. Go get a seperator and go to town.

Yeah tried hammering believe me i tried for atleast 2 hours getting this b***h out. Its just jammed in there right now somehow. Ill take some pics tomorrow. It's loosened up from the inner tie rod already that was easy. I dont know what the deal is i figure if i cant get ball joint spreader tomorrow going to find me a cutting torch. This this has just entirely aggravated the s**t out of me.
Ok man but im telling u u can knock em out with a hammer. I just did it on a toyota pickup.
I trief the hammer with no luck. I even put jack on it still no luck
