Frequently Asked Questions
Will this work on both inner and outer tie rod ends?
This tool is designed for standard tie rod end separation. Jaw clearance works on most common tie rod geometries, but test-fit on your specific application before committing to the job — some setups may have packaging constraints.
Do I need a pickle fork, or does this replace it?
This is a mechanical leverage tool, not a pickle fork. It applies gradual pulling force rather than impact, which is gentler on the stud and knuckle. Many techs prefer it for that reason, but both methods exist in the field.
What hand tools do I need to use this?
You'll need a wrench or socket to loosen the castle nut, and basic hand tools to position and operate the removal tool itself. No power tools required — this is designed for manual operation.
