Glad you got them out finallyBecause you're replacing the knuckle let the hammer rip. I use a 4 lb HF. turn the wheel so you get access and smash the knuckle hard as close as you can to the LCA and it should pop up. The more force the easier it's going to be. Try to get some blaster down in the taper. And then once you do that you can take the whole mess out in one piece. Then it might be easier to work on
A hot wrench lol. Usually what I do is take a wrench put it on there and tap it with a hammer usually that frees it up. If that doesn’t work then that’s when it’s time for the heat.Well the new knuckle came in early today and I got it on with one exception now. The start of the threads on the outer tie rod is now messed up because I decided to use the mallet to get it now. I bought a new tie rod outter but the old one is rusted on pretty well. I'm spraying it down with penetrating oil as much as I can right now but does anybody have any tips for getting the outer tie rod off?
