Do you have any pics of the situation? Normally the tie rods are stuck (they are a conical shape and will self press when the nut is tightened.) The best way to get them loose is to rap them with a hammer right on the knuckle where the tie rod end is.
Here is a visual aid. Pay no attention to where the hammer is in this pic. Hit it where the green arrow is pointing, it should pop off with a few good whacks.
