Will check this out. So far I have not heard any any autoparts stores (or other shops) renting tools here...
I'll most likely change the tierod ends (inner and outer) during next winter - already purchased the TRW parts.

Autozone here in Houston loans them. My experience has been that if the store nearby doesn't have a tool on their list, they will find one for you at another store or put one in inventory as a loaner.

Yes, I used to loan tools from several shops as I lived in SoCal and built my cars there. Currently I live in Finland and so far I have not found shops loaning / renting the tools, but then again i have not looked for such here.
