Rear Link - Help
 

I am replacing some of the remaining links on the rear

suspension. On the control arm strut (tie rod) there appears to

be a type of a ball joint going into the wheel carrier and the strut

won't come out. How do you extract it and then install the new O

One?? Can it be done without a special tool? If not what tool do I

need.

Attached is a picture with the stubborn end circled in yellow.

Thanks for the help.

That's a standard tie rod end with a taper fitting, you need a tie rod tool to get it out.
