have you tried hammering around the tube to break the rust where the thread is and then spread the split a tiny bit with a chisel and then clamp tube in a bog vice and use a piece of tube on the balljoint to unscrew it.
 
I got one of the HD ones from paddocks after buying new ends and no being able to get them out :( But the HD one defiantly looks up to the task

I have done three track rod ends today with the method you suggest. I did clip a curb the other week and wreck a rim- I think it has buggered the thread on that side- I have spent hours with it in a vice trying to lever it of, soaked it for hours in WD, but it isn't shifting:(

There are a few of us around Hemel, thats about your closest. Mine is still a long way off finished but defenderdog1, djdommyp, killajoules are with working vehicles and go out now and again. There is a pub meet in dunstable this Wednesday, doubt I will be there but the others might and they are a good crowd.

Would you have a steering rod I could buy of you? I have tried changing my track rod ends and cannot get one of them out - it is the side that had the impact so I suspect it has been pushed in/ wrecked the threads.
