Inner tie rod replacement advice

[Zibodo]

Let you let me know where you can find off set pliers like that? P/N?, Supplier? Thanks

I did a search for the pliers and the first hit brought them up:

Lisle 30600 Offset Boot Clamp Plier

I am looking at this job in the very near future.
I cannot determine what ball joint removal tool is the best one to use if one wants to not damage the ball joints on the coffin arms? The Harbor Freight one sounded good, but I cannot tell for sure if it needs grinding out or not. It also appears that the pickle fork will kill the ball joint boots. Also, can I replace only the outer tie rods since the ball joints are worn or will the TRW outer part not fit on the OEM inner arm? Thanks.
