Just what I needed.

This is exactly the tool needed to get to the inner tie rod ends for removal/replacement.

Replaced all the front end parts. Only needed this tool on passenger inner tie rod. Made short work of what could have been a frustrating time killer. Easily paid for itself on the first use! Glad i had it

Thank you for the fast delivery. The part worked perfect. Thanks Ron
Very helpful

I ordered this to replace tie rods and boy was that a great decision! Just be sure to not over-tighten the nuts. A little pressure goes a long way. If you over-tighten you can strip the threads and make it impossible to reuse.
Did the job

I was skeptical of this tool but it surprisingly worked very well. I would recommend.
Too bulky

I'm not sure if there are multiple size options, but I did not have enough room around the tie rods on my '12 Sonata to make even a quarter rotation with this tool.

Great tool, smart invention .Wish I thought of it.For the price a great value.Easy to use a must when you cant get a wrench on the inside tie rod.Some vehicles are easy to access.Others have no room .This tool takes it off easily.Use a 3/8-1/2 adapter ,2 long 1/2 extensions so you clear the fender opening with a 1/2 breaker bar and Bobs your uncle.
Tie Rod Tool Works Great!

Definitely helps get the tie rod off if they are stuck/rusty. A helpful tip: use the biggest extension and longest wrench you got for leverage.

awesome tool. made removing the inner tie rod a lot easier. Had a lot of trouble trying to remove the inner tie rod with another tool. Only downside was had to keep loosening, repositioning and re tightening the tool until the inner tie rod was loose. Tool made the job a lot easier.

Not always easy to fit in some vehicles
Randy
October 9, 2022
Nice tool, but extremely difficult to fit on some vehicles inner tie rod base and still have room to turn it enough to loosen the inner tie rod, example, worked very easy on a 2007 Hyundai Elantra, extremely hard to place on a 2014 Mazda 6 GT, because inner tie rod base lines up with sway bar, barley enough for a quarter turn, but if tight enough you can make it work.
Very satisfied in every aspects will shop again!

I had previously borrowed the full set from a local auto parts store, but bought this one to have handy. It was a tight fit, for my hands and socket, to get in there and tighten it down. But it did work. Very hard to torque though without it slipping off.
Must have!

Tie rod tool was impressive. It was well-made of hardened steel. It was invaluable for taking out the inner tie rod on my Honda CRV. I do not know how I could have performed the task as easily without it. I would encourage anyone thinking about doing this job to purchase this sturdy, but inexpensive tool.

Hunter
October 13, 2023
The tool came clean, undamaged, and on time. The tool worked well with the removal and install of inner/outer tie rods and didn't on me. Some instructions on how to use would've good, but it's just a clamp on the inner tie rod so not too hard to figure out with a lil youtube.

Michael

Works and cheaper than the special tools, but after doing the job the special tools would have been a great help. You have to tighten both bolts turn a half turn, untighten both bolts, readjust the tool tighten it and repeat like 5 times. Big headache. But it is what they sold me so I got what I paid for

This tool made replacing my inner tie rods very easy. A Extension rod from the tool to my breaker bar is what I needed to get enough torque to loosen the tie rod but it came very easy on both sides.
Armando
December 15, 2023
Excellent product
Great with a long extension, just a little bit tedious to refasten it several times.
Shane
December 23, 2023
It worked well with a long extension to reach deep. It can be tough to fasten the nuts in a tight space then refasten them, to slowly turn the inner tie-rod. One side was harder than the other, but to be expected of course.
Kyle
December 23, 2023
Good tool, got me out of a pinch of a super tight inner tie rod. Don't expect this tool to last you a long time. It's one of those tools to use for a couple of times then it's in the trash. But I wouldn't pass it up it definitely has its place saving time and frustration
