Hi everyone,

I'm new here, hoping to get some help on replacing the tie rods on my 2003 Lancer OZ Rally.

I'm replacing both inner and outer tie rods on both sides and I'm stuck on trying to remove the rubber boot from the inner tie rod. There appear to be 2 clamps, one on each side of the boot. The clamp on the front was easily removed since I can actually reach it, but it is rather difficult to reach the inner clamp.

It's rather frustrating since most cars have easy access to both clamps and remove the rubber boot in seconds. My question is has anyone here ever come across this problem or know what to do here?

From the looks of it, I will probably give up and just cut/tear the rubber off and buy a new one to use with my new tie rods :S

Any help or advice (other than taking it to a mechanic) would be greatly appreciated ^_^
