what kind of problems are you having???
all you gotta do is take the nut off and unscrew the tie rod.

or do you mean not coming off the spindle???
if that's the case hit the spindle with a big hammer and it pops off.

did you loosen the jam nut first. the one that is screwed to the inner tie rod that locks the inner and outer together???? if so and you still have a problem heat is your next best friend.

depending on what side it's on it will have reverse threads, make sure you are turning it the right way

DUDE, no they dont. there are very few manufacturers that use LHT on anything. vehicles w/ a steering gearbox w/ a threaded sleeve on both sides connecting the two tie rods use one RHT and one LHT tie rod, but no FWD car uses LHT.

nah, i know what you are talking about, you mean on a domestic pickup or suv, w/ a steering gearbox instead of a rack and pinion. where theres an inner threaded sleeve and an outer. in that case either the inners or the outers are LHT. but on anything w/ a rack and pinion ,ANYTHING, the outer is always going to spin counter clockwise to come off *RHT*
