Those things can usually be knocked off by loosening the nut to the top of the threads and hitting the nut with a hammer.

If that isn't working, a pickle fork is your cheapest bet if you're replacing the drag link anyway. Those things always work. A tie rod puller could also work if you have access to one.

Yeah, pickle forks will always work, but they sometimes rip the grease boot on the TR, so get a new one when you buy the pickle fork. pickle for is about $15-$20, and the new boot in the HELP section is ~$5
