Stuck tie rod, help, advice
 

Greetings, photos should explain my woes!

Chevy 3500 tie rod stuck in spindle. I've beat it with the sledge hammer, pb blaster and a pickle fork. If i cut it I'm afraid I won't have leverage.

jam the pickle fork in as tight as possible at an angle if possible and smack the end of the spindle with a BFH. it should pop right out.

If you have an air hammer?, They make a pickle fork attachment.

Take the tire off so you can get a god lick at it. And smak the dog out of it with a big hammer on the spindle part, it will come off. I do not se any marks on it where you need to be hitting it
