I encountered an outer tie rod last month that did not come out with a hammer. Used a 3 lb sledge too, so that doesn't always work. But the 2-arm puller did the trick just fine with an 18" socket wrench.
Op, do you have a section of copper or galvanized pipe you can slip over your wrench as a cheater bar? More handle length = more torque and might be just enough to do the trick. 12" wrench is hard to get a ton of torque on.
