Removing tie rod ends

Here is a tip for removing tie rod ends,

1. Remove split pin
2. Undo nut (leave the nut on the end of the thread as a way of protecting it incase of a miss with the hammer)
3. Give the side of the draglink a sharp hit with a hammer (not the tie rod end)
4. Remove tie rod end (this may require a very light tap on the end of the nut, Anything harder will require a repeat of step 3)
