Get the inner tie rod tool from harbor Freight for the inner tie rods:

You should consider the steering linkage upgrade that is here on the forum, only buy the stainless version of DD shaft (Borgeson 419422 - Stainless Steering Shaft - 3/4"-DD x 22" Long) (you'll only use around 13") and paint the couplers and vibration reducer before you install or they will rust. This, and the KYB KG5529 rear shocks, are the best (and cheapest) upgrades I've done so far.

I'm installing camber plates on #272, but found out that we need special camber plate nuts because the KYB 361005 threads are too shallow for the plates, so I'll have to wait until next week for that.
