So just finished my ball joints today, and I thought I would consolidate alignments and put my v8 zj tie rod in. Got the tie rod end on the hub side off just fine, but the drag link side is much more of a challenge. Ran out of time so I just pb blasted it and left. I need to get it off tomorrow and aligned. Ive hit it with a bfh I've tried the harbor freight pickle fork ish looking tool with no luck. Is a tie rod end puller really going to work or should I try to drill it out maybe? Or should I just take it to a shop (something I would rather not do). Like I said I need this done tomorrow and dot really have time to mess around. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

More PB blaster, a bigger hammer and maybe some heat. They're stubborn but it'll eventually come out

Thanks guys, but tie rod puller with hammer worked for me.

A pitman arm puller works also.
