Inner tierod replacement soon

Couple basic questions...

1. Does the moog inner tierod have the same nut size as the OEM? (I want to bring th moog to autozone to test fit before I rent it)

2. Some threads I read say the autozone one does not fit. Anyon from CT area try an autozone out here?

Basically, I am confident about everything except have the right tool to loosen the inner tierod.

Just to help anyone in the future.

1. The 33.6mm adapter fit both OEM and MOOG parts well enough. Though, one was more snug than the other.

2. Autozone did not fit.

Job was pretty easy although I got bad news when I had the alignment. Guy there said front left shock may be bent causing the front left to be off 2 degrees. HP blues will be a replacement with OEM boots. Money is starting to add up on this car haha.
