Use Tie rod separator.

Use Tie rod separator.

That will tear the boot, you need a puller.

(I mean, I used a block of wood and a hammer, but the "correct" way is with a puller. You can use a tie rod separator, just buy the boot in advance.)

this just happend to me and im about to give up, i cant get the axle to go back in any help?

[jtyler05si]

search.....i think you just push on it and slowly turn it, it will lock back in....it takes time. some one correct me on this if i am wrong but i believe i read this the other day somewhere on here.
