if you want to take the rack out i would sugguest remove the boot on the inner tie rod and loosen the nut holding it in then put the castle nut back on the outer tie rod a few threads in and if hit just right when a rubber mallet or so it should pop it off

no problem just try not to hit the castle nut to hard cuz you dont want to damage the tie rod end

Burn it? Your trying to get the tie rod off the hub? Get a tie rod seperator. You can rent it from Autozone

screw a nut on it or put something flat on the end of the bolt and hit the shit out of it.
