this should help you out...



to adjust it, simply take a 15mm wrench, loosen up the bolts on the turn buckles and then rotate it. if you need your steering wheel to go to the left, rotate the turn buckle up and vise versa.

Instead of a "pipe wrench" hit the threads with WD-40 use a lot of it until it breaks free.
It will break free just be patient
Once you get the rust out of the threads it will turn easily.
You don't want to strip the threads on a tie rod which is the risk you take using a "pipe wrench".
Tie rods are EXPENSIVE.
A "pipe wrench" is for pipe, not a tie rod.
