Skip the pickle fork for removing tie rod ends.
They are more aggravation than usefull. Take a BFH or normal hammer and hit the outer control arm where the link fits into the hole about 3 times and the tappered shaft of the tie rod will just pop out. We have been doing this for years at the shop and never use a pickle fork. Much faster and easier using a hammer.
