Hi,
What do people use for a Ball joint / track rod end seperator?
I run in to problems every time and end up wrecking a track rod end. On side usually comes off ok, the other is an absolute arse! This time i'm replacing.
I have a couple of different tools, one like this and one like this
Neither work well and usually break either mangle the top of the thread / nut or rip the rubber seal.
What works for others?
