The best inner tie rod tool? 

I've been using this tool for every tie rod job I get and it's my new favorite tool. I don't even bother with my other tools anymore 👍

Mate, I had to come back and say thanks. I ordered one of these tools, heated the inner rod end after grinding off the outer rod and OMG, it came off far easier than I thought it would. Thanks!

Big help. I'm gonna buy this one. It seems it's really useful when we do inner tie-rod jobs of FF cars.

Thanks for the demonstration of this simple, yet effective tool.

I've had the "tube" one for years ... gonna get this one too. thumbs up

Nice demonstration & explanation on a worthy specialty tool. *_TRUST !!_*

Thanks to your video, I went and bought this tool. with little no effot, the tie rod came loose. This is my go to tool now.

Sweet little tool for the price, I think I will pick one up too. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks!!!! I bought this tool based on your video and would have totally overlooked this little guy. It worked like a champ! I owe you one! 👍😁👍

I like how you explain away your mix ups. ☺️ #entertaining #mechanic #winning

Thank you for making this

I've been looking at them Great video

Interesting idea! Basically a pipe wrench with a half inch square socket near the teeth, allowing one to stand at the side and exert more torque. A pipe wrench wouldn't work as well because there is not enough room without a lift. The best thing about this is how small it is. Big specialty tools are a pain to store.

Great review!

As i'm so cheap I made my own removal tool. It has 4 nuts welded around the end of a tube with bolts that screw down onto the tie rod flats. The other end has a large 1/2 inch socket bolted in for the breaker bar/ torque wrench to slot into. That new tool looks pretty nifty, might be tempted.

Great video. Thanks

oh Man!, this is great! Nice vid!

This was so funny, thanks

Great video thanks

I appreciate the depth of how you explain the approach of using tools and doing the job

I have two vehicles that need new front suspension so im giving this a try👍 Sad that you can buy tools/parts do it yourself and still save money👍

Legitimately pretty dope Love the angles and love seeing everything Besides setting up this should be straightforward on a 14 tiguan

Nice tool 👍thanks

Good job

I'v never done an inner but I will get one of these

I was distracted by your head touch. I do luv a good head touch 2 giv u the best advantage u can !

That's an awesome tool for the price! Not sure I'm game to do tie rods though haha I don't have enough grunt 😂

Hi, I only need to use this two times (left and right side) and I don't need fancy OEM tools comes with so many adaptors and also so expensive. Which you would you pick to repair tie rod for a old corolla. I read some comments down below on the clamps is better because it opened and can adjust to many application (ie faucet, pipes etc.) but the one you show on video seems more solid build and it use 1/2 extension (more power). Which one you will pick? Thank you so much for sharing this video. You going to save me lot of $ on inner tie rod replacement. 👍

I have a stud remover that looks / works similarly... for a minute, I thought I had been using it for the wrong purpose! LOL

Lol! Hilarious great vid.!!!

Hi there! awesome video! question can you use this tool for tightening as well? or it's only for loosening? Thanks! liked and subscribed!

I use big pliers or adjustable wrench and a hammer and it always always works

I have that same AEM I need tie rod took plus, a $5. Or $10. Dollar tie rod tool that looks like a exhaust clamp shape, it's cheap & works good but, the Aem dominates inner tie rods but, only if the outer tie rod is removed 1st. My green AEM tie rod tool came with 12-15 different size inserts.

Great video and thank you for it! Would this tool work on a 2011 Honda Pilot?

How this tool hold up since this vid? Like the vids you do, some humor thrown in with them😁👍🏼👌🏼

The other tool you reviewed that looks like a muffler clamp, works better. The bite around the inner tie rod is spread out much more. There is no cam to wear out. You don't have to remove the outer tie rod from the inner tie rod. It is less expensive. And can be used for many other applications besides inner tie rod removal. I've used it successfully on several types of cars.

I have a stuck inner with red lock tight. I used a 3/4 breaker with 1/2 inch adapter and the oem tool but the tool fails. The c- ring slips and spins around the flats on tierod and the ring on the tool come off. Tie rod will not budge. Think this new tool will work for me? Thinking the rack needs to come out or I need to cut the rod and devise something that I can weld into a 3/4 deep well socket.

Wow, this heather you using, am actually seeing it for the first time, very portable and handy, is is using gas or something, can I get it on ebay. And this tie rod tools is plastic, will this one last? I am happy to watch your tutorial right here, God bless you bruh!

Will this tool work on a honda civic inner tie rod, where 32mm wrench fits on the tie rod head? (the head is like a cube and the 32 mm wrech fits on the cube)?? Thank you for your answer!

Hi, great review on this tool, thanks 👍🏻 But I’m wondering, can this tool be used for the installation of the inner tie-rod? Thanks in advance

Did you use this tool to install the new inner tie rod? Or is this just a removal tool. Thanks

Hi how has this tool held up over the years just curious as I’m looking to see which is the best style of inner tie rod remover for a mk5 golf platform

Great vid does it fit a sprinter w906 2012 thanks

Finally getting around to trying this tool- update coming👍

I have another question on torque specifications for 2003 Chevrolet Cavalier. For some reason many torques are very confusing on this car. I need just 2 of them: 1. For the Jam Nut on the Inner-Outer rods connection. What I found on forums (31-55 Ft-lbs), e-manual (nothing) and Haynes book (nothing), I think it is obvious mistake) varies a lot. Maybe it is not that big deal, bcs I'll go for alignment to a dealer anyway, but it would be good to know at least approximately. 2. For Outer TR End Nut. What I found on forums (33-50 Ft-lbs), e-manual (nothing for 2003, 31Ft-lbs for 1995, 44 Ft-lbs for 1997-1999) and Haynes book (84 in-lbs (7 Ft-lbs), I think it is obvious mistake) varies a lot. Thanks God I found in e-manual for Axle Nut 147 Ft-Lbs for 2003 Chevy Cavalier (and not like they give in Haynes 185 Ft-lbs, that was true for earlier models). I was about to apply 185 Ft-lbs and even bought a torque ranch in that range of torques. I even don't know what would happen if I would apply 36 more than needed, maybe nothing, it would be just hard to remove that Axle Nut next time. I think it so confusing for this car bcs there are a lot of variations on torques for models of different years. I would appreciate any opinion on those two torques, mentioned above. Thank you for the film again. For the Inner TR I'll be using that green OEM tool you have.

Can I use that tool for installation of inner tie rod ?

Do we need this tool to install the new inner tie rod ?

Mine came in today took the inter tie rod off was like a hot knife through butter love the choice I made. It did break a loose like it didn't work, but it work well without heat.

Link to other video please that uses the other tie-rod clamp tool

That Phillips screw looks like it will be the fail point on this tool but I don’t know for sure since I don’t have one.

Does it work on a 04 Dodge ram 1500 4 wheel drive truck?

Would this tool have enough bite to grip a round tie rod without the notch?

If the inner track rod is on a ball joint how can you rotate it off?? Bought this tool but my track rod just spins??

Can this tools be use for installation also?

Hi, Can some body help me with the link for the tie rod kit, Otherwise the proper name for this tool Thank you

CAN I USE THIS TOOL IN TIE ROD OF NISSAN PATHFINTHER 2000

Mayhew Pro 29910 Speedy Universal Inner Tie Rod Tool, the best tool so far

now i wonder if this tool or the other one in your video which is better, they other one takes longer to setup be ause you have to tighten 2 nuts buy this tool you have to take all them parts off just to get it in. 🤔

The inner tie rods have slits in it where u can use a wrench and just keep bumping it it inner tie rods don’t have much torque to them unless whoever put it on did it wrong

How do you tighten it back up?

can you re-install and tighten the rod using that tool?

I've read that it is recommended to remove the rack before torquing on the inner tie rods (not to damage or break seals on that rack), but I see many films where Inner TRs are replaced without that complicated procedure. Is it for some models, or it is extra precaution? I changed those Inner TRs on one car (2001 Saturn SL2) and decided to do same thing on 2003 Chevy Cavalier. But there was a white plastic sleeve on the Inner TR of the Chevy, I started to do some research and came across this statement about the seals on the rack. Now thinking that maybe it is a reason, why for both cars Haynes Manual doesn't describe Inner TR replacement. Very confused and would appreciate any opinion on this matter. Thank you for the good film.

Niiiiiiiiiice! (Fab voice)

What about cutting the tie rod with an angle grinder to fit it in ?

I tried two tube style kits on a Honda Pilot and neither fit. One tube would fit but no but that would fit and the other kit wouldn’t fit over the ball on the inner tie rod so I had to take one tube out of one kit then a nut out of the other to make something work. I’d rather try a different style like this.

What is the name or model number of the tool?

Just like an old stud extractor A little larger

They need to invent an inner tie rod tool that clamps around the inner rod when you cannot get the outer tie rod off. If you know of one let me know. Thanks

i think the angle of rotation is wrong that is why it is hard to remove

Can u tight with that tool too?

What's the name of the tool?

how to name this tool

Simple machines. Relies exclusively on physics, not theory.

it will not work on all inner tie rods try it on a 94-97 honda accord and any tie rod that has a ball joint where it screws into the rack and pinion it will just turn the tie rod around the ball joint

is there a chipmunk dying in the background??

Won't fit over 2006 Toyota Tundra inter tie rod to small.

Exelkent

It is hard because you are in the wrong angle.

Link to tool? Links for everything else smh

With every extension you add you lose more leverage

It is not that tight

Cars suck

Is my is my mother goose club out.
