[T3] Tie Rod End Question

[JaransonT3@aol.com]

OK, I was dismantling the front beam assembly that I removed last week and it 
went pretty good.  I got the steering box, calipers, fuel pump, and one tie 
rod off.   However, the last tie rod end I have run about against I snag.  
When I turn the nut to take it off the shaft in the tie rod end turns with 
it.  I can't see a way to hold the shaft from turn to get the nut off.

What are my option?  Cut the nut off with a hacksaw or cut-off wheel or the 
like?  Torch it off (which, btw, I don't have)?  Can I hold the tie rod end 
shaft somehow?

What say you, oh wise ones?
