Track rod

[thegoose]

I need to replace the drivers side as theres is some movement whats the easiest way to remove it as i got my mate to have a go abd he's having trouble shifting it as its bloody tight and then theres the issue of space without removibg anything else,the Camskill rod has 4 flats to get some leverage whilst the stock obe fittred has only two top and bottom so can't get much grip on it

The washer bends over the flat bits to lock it in place. Bend these back with a BFS and a hammer, then use a 32mm (IIRC? Maybe 30mm) spanner to undo it.

I've used a pipe wrench to remove them in the past.
