you need this type of puller
I spent a whole day trying to get a tierod off, broke a gear puller and was really pissed untill a board member here came over with the right tool. Then it took 2 minutes.

"Pitman Arm Puller" - local chain auto parts store will have one for sure to rent or buy and it is still the afternoon in CA and most places are open until at least 9 p.m. here.

I tried all of the above. 5 minutes with an angle grinder and it was off.
