So you removed the cotter pin, and removed the castle nut and now it’s just stuck?

Whack the side of the knuckle right where the tie rod pin goes through it with heaviest hammer you have a few times. It should pop right out.

It's off the strut but the outer tie Rod is still connected to the inner and it's stuck.

Re: Outer tie rod removal issue
Same thing happened to me, over the years they had become fused together basically. I ended up just replacing the inner and outer at the same time.
