Default outer ball joint question.

Taking off the outer ball joint tie rod... The only thing thats holding it on is the bolt that holds the vertical pin in, I think theres a special tool or something to take that bolt out...does anyone know how to take this out or what i need.

The only things you need ever are a bigger hammer and heat. The beer is a given.

Yup, beer, a hammer, a map gas torch, and fluency in swearing are a win over a pinch bolt every time.
