Damn you steering systems and your ways of getting stuff out with certain tools.

Long story short, I had to replace a tie rod on my mom's van or I couldn't go to Fort Wayne this year. I can tell you, it should have been done long ago, yet it still somehow held up. Anyway, that problem is over with, and we can go about getting ready to leave on the 20th to Fort Wayne, IN.
