You  just
need the right size allen wrench to unlock the grub screw that secures  it to
the rack.

                You  will be looking for a long time to find that allen
wrench and grub screw BECAUSE  they DO NOT EXIST !        The ball  joint on the
end of the tie rod just unscrews.   It is tight with much  torque so it will
take some force to move it.
