95 accord tie rod replacement question????
Hey guys, I just want to know how hard it is to replace the inner tie rod on the 95 accord? I looked around and my question is that do I need a special tool to unbolt the inner tie rod? I look on those auto parts websites and the picture of the inner tie rod end nut look normal and remove by using a regular wrench. I haven't go out and see the actual yet, so I just wondering if I can even just do it at home without special tool or let the shop do it.
Thanks
Thanks

If your working on your Accord I recommend you utilize the Honda Service Manual. It is available for download on HondaSwap(dot)com.

I downloaded the manual, and the manual does not cover how to change the tie rod, mostly on camber and caster works. I searched around and they all mention need a special tool, but thats for 97+, just wondering if the older model are the same.
btw, how do I check if I need to replace the inner tie rod? I was told to have them both replace when I did my alignment at Pepboys. I know for sure I need the outer one, but not so much on the inner.

Pepboys told you the tierods are bad and they still aligned it? And you got an alignment with a known bad outer? Not wise my friend.

Well, they did it and then tell me that I should get it replace. I guess I still need an alignment while waiting to change the tie rod since I changed my control arms and somehow this time my tires are worn out faster than normal
