I snapped the tierod end bolt on a schwartz font end on my 560. I got the part from Case-IH, but now can't take the old end apart to replace the ball. The tie rod end had a threaded "cap" that has a large slot with a wire keeper that threads through two opposing holes in the tie rod end to secure this "cap" from backing itself out. No need for a keeper, this thing is rusted tight! I've soaked it in "Liquid Wrench" and tried to bang it loose with a drift, but it won't budge. I understand it can "heated" out. How does one go about doing this. I always thought metal EXPANDED when it was heated. Whouldn't that make it tighter? Help!!!
