Subject:      Refresh my memory about inner tie rods, someone!
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"

I redid every piece of my front end in 2012. But for the life of me I don't
recall the details of the inner tie rod joints, which are going to need
replacing pretty soon on my westy. Do they have a means of accepting the
now-standard inner tie rod remover setups that engage a large hex end on
the inner joint? I didn't think so. Last time I did it, the rack was in my
vise but I want to do the job on the car. I looked at Bentley, it assumes
the rack is removed.

Any tricks to this that I am forgetting or overlooking?

Thanks,

Jim
