So today, I was doing an alignment on my 99 Coupe. All was going well near completion until I ran into a dead end with the left tie rod lock nut. No matter what I tried, it won't loosen. I tried torching it, Rust off, A pipe on the end of the wrench for more leverage but still nothing. Just wanted to see if anyone has any other ideas. I wanna cut the nut off but I'm afraid of damaging the tie rod or the threads and the nut is starting to round off.
