I had to put my tie rod ends IN the wood stove for about 5 mins an end, place in a very large vice, a big ass pipe wrench and crescent wrench and recruit a helper to get mine to break lose.

Yes. The tie rods were the most difficult part of the job... As indicated by the need for a big ass vice and a blow torch. Oh... And a big ass pipe wrench with an additional 4' cheater
