If you"re having difficulty with the taper. Go to your local auto parts store and ask for a pickle bar. Actual name I think is ball joint seperator. They come in different sizes so tell the clerk what it"s for and they should give you the correct tool. They are relatively inexpensive. $15 - 25 American depending on size and store. If you"re not saving the old tie rod end, don"t worry about hurting the seals. The only other tool you"ll need is a hammer. The pickle bar "fork" is tapered so that when driven with a hammer between the tie rod end and it"s mount, it forces them apart. Couple good whacks and you"ll have it apart no sweat. If I"m not making sense to you, let me know and I"ll try to clarify.
