Toolwiz 3/8'' Universal Low Profile Tool + 1/2'' Inner Tie Rod Hex Wrench

Used this to remove an inner tie rod on a 2006 r50 mini. Couldn’t get the track rod off I think was the original one. Didn’t even know about this tool until I had the issue. Was sceptical because some people have had bad experiences with the tool not working. Fitted the tool over the nut and checked before trying to undo the nut. Undid the nut with no issues so for the price it’s earned its cost. Even if I don’t use it again it was worth it. So 5 stars

This is a very good tool. I’ve replaced inner tie rods before using other tools- this is simpler and better. Made removing an inner tie rods with pretty poor access pretty straightforward and the tool is good to be used again. I’m not quite sure what other reviewers have done to damage the teeth- I suspect they may be over tightening. Would definitely recommend for the home mechanic.

Perfectly usable if you’re only planning to do one to several tie rods. However, you must have plenty of extension bars handy to get clearance of the wheel arches if you want to free a tight inner rod. Must be tightly attached, and the teeth deform quickly. Check you have clearance to access the drive. Be extremely careful not to apply off-axis force to the steering rack; in our case we supported the head of the breaker bar when twisting to ensure the force was rotational rather than shearing or bending. We attached the tool to the 30mm hex on the inner tie rod where it connects to the steering rack, and it fit well. I recommend looking at the tube-style tie rod removal tools as an easier, more secure alternative. The first time using this tool was quite frustrating, as it was initially slipping and didn’t feel like a comfortable job until we had an established system for the second inner tie rod and secured the nuts tightly. That said, for the price, it’s a handy tool and will help you save money doing the job at home if you’re not looking to use it often. It's sturdy enough and the build quality is sufficient for its purpose for the odd job.

Perfect did the job

Absolute piece of junk. Doesn't grip well at all. Very awkward to use.

Worked good. as others advised, I’ve used a zip tie to hold it snug.Good value for money

Quite fiddly but did do the job. Removal wasn't easy but was able to get the tie rod off using the tool. I would suggest using an adjustable wrench if space allows. Build quality was good. Good to keep in the tool chest for future.

Worked as intended, made an impossible job very easy. Make sure you degrease the old inner tie rod before using.

軽自動車で使用。 レビューでダメみたいな事を見ましたが、硬くしまっていたラックエンドが滑らず外れました。ちょっと噛み込ませるポイントを見つけるとズレないです。 使用後の山もしっかり残っており何度も使えそうです。(機会は少ないが)

Simple design, works well. May have interference with frame, but repositioning solves issue. Well worth the small cost compared to other tools

Goede spul

I used this inner tie rod removal tool on my 2014 Honda CR-V EX-L AWD, and it worked really well. It made removing the inner tie rod much easier and saved me a lot of time and effort. Very useful tool for DIY repairs, especially when working in a tight space. Definitely worth having.
