replacing inner tie rod
I plan to replace my inner tie rods. I've completed the passenger side, but I'm still trying to figure out how to replace the inner tie rod on the driver side. Does anyone have any tips or advice? Anything would be appreciated.

read the helms, didnt want to pull rack...
to change/install with rack in place:
the passenger was the easiest. accessible room from below and above.
the driver have minimal room below. couldnt work from above since the master cyliner, alternator, p/s line was all there.
easiest thing to do is turn the wheel right (towards passenger) so the gear rod is lengthened. that allows room for a, open end wrench, (1.50") to losen and tighten the inner tie rod.
dont forget to lube that gear rod.
