Tie rods that have been on a long time are problematic. I have had the threads come out before when trying to change the ball joint on the end of it. I resorted to buying an assembly with the ball joint attached after that.

Toe should not change... possibly you should be replacing some other suspension parts instead of trying to adjust toe.
