12 in Tie Rod Separator

This Westward separator tool is built for cars and light duty trucks. The steel construction provides the strength needed to free seized tie rod ends. It measures 12 in overall length and fits a 1 7/16 in size. The single piece design keeps the tool simple and durable for suspension work.

Suited for steering service, not heavy truck work

Mechanics servicing passenger cars and light duty trucks will find the 1 7/16 in opening matches common tie rod ends. The 12 in length gives enough leverage for most stuck joints without being unwieldy. Shops working on Class 6 or heavier commercial vehicles should look at larger capacity separators with wider jaw openings and longer handles.

Handles common tie rod sizes up to 1 7/16 in

The tool comfortably separates standard tie rod ends found on many cars and light trucks. The fixed 1 7/16 in size means it cannot accommodate larger ball joints or heavy duty steering components. When the joint exceeds this opening or requires more leverage than the 12 in handle provides, a different separator is needed.

Questions about this item

What size tie rod end does the 1 7/16 in opening on this separator tool fit?

The 1 7/16 in size is designed for tie rod ends on cars and light duty trucks that match this dimension.

Will the 12 in overall length still work if I keep my existing ball joint press set?

Yes, the 12 in length provides enough reach to operate alongside other tools without interference.

How can I verify the forged steel jaws are seated correctly after positioning the tool?

The jaws should sit flush around the tie rod end with the centre bolt contacting the stud squarely before force is applied.
