Track Rod End Removing

[Steve]

Cant get the fuckers off the strut :homme:
Last time when i undone the nuts they came off by hand, special way of getting them off?

Twated with a hammer numerous of times :afro:
Only thing stopping me getting the strut off.

Got a ball joint seperator which is doing sweet fuck all really.

ball joint splitter usually does the trick. Try turning the ball joint splitter upside down then hitting it a few times, then turning it up the other way and hitting it a few more times. Keep repeating it and it 'should' eventually come off.
