Hi Rob

I would suggest the old wife treatment.... hot and cold a few times in quick succession......

Let me explain..... as a firm believer of the hot wrench..... heat up the adjoining piece... not the tie rod part.... quench quickly in cold water.... whack it with a hammer of decent size... repeat process a few times...... spray penetrating oil in between once the part is cool..... may take a few sessions...... hit tie rod from bottom not only from the top castle nut area.... your goal is to break the rust weld...... as in marriage....paaaaatttiiieeennnceeee.... will eventually pay off.... or have a few beers and smash the sh**t to pieces.... oopps didn't mean to get carried away.
