I have a bent inner tie rod on my 1999 Mitsubishi Mirage, 1.5L engine, and has 100,000 miles. Is it possible to change out the innner tie rod or do I have to replace the whole rack and pinion? If possble to what special tools do I need to remove the inner tie rod and is there anything special I need to know - torque specs, things I should make sure and do? Thanks

it can be replace d
But u say its bent so you may have to cut it off for the tools to fit over it
Special tools looks like a long pipe
Good luck
