      IIRC, the inner tie rod is 17mm so it should work. I used a wrench last time I changed them, but their long winded so it kinda sucked lol.

          Yes, the tool is handy on a lot of cars that are inaccessible in that parts
          location. Also, after its broke loose you can spin the inner socket
          with a gun

                  Could you verify before I purchase the tool? Thatwould be awesome.
                  I dont want to get it and it doesnt have the correct adapters. That was the reason behind this post. Thanks Chobo-

                  Includes seven adapters: SAE 1-3/16", 1-1/4", 1-5/16", 1-7/16" and Metric 14mm, 17mm, 33.6mm

                    about 24 mm

                    If you jack up the car you can easily reach it from underneath though, i just used a 24mm wrench

                          I think he's talking about the wrench size not the "bolt" size. A lot of people don't know there is a difference.

                            I've done a couple of inners already and was lucky enough to have a buddy with a collection of big wrenches (most people don't) but I could have sworn they were 23 millimeter.
