Loosen the nut a couple of turns, then using a piece of 1"dia x 6" long bar as a punch smack the end of the steering arm end on towards the hub. Have a helper apply a little pressure upwards on the tie rod end with a pry bar while you do this. A couple of hits in this fashion with a 3lb hammer will usually free the tie rod end ( We are using the taper of the steering arm hole to squeeze the tie rod end out) Leaving the nut on save's the thread if you have a miss hit!
