First off, how have you come to the conclusion that the TFL is weak/strong and that the glutes are weak/strong? Are we talking glute max or med/min? You seem to know what your’e talking about about so I won’t elaborate but feel free to ask q’s of what I mean!

What type of work have you been doing with you’re glutes? Having been a powerlifter I find it hard to believe that the lack of external rotation in the left (non operated) leg is due to glute weakness. More likely a severe tightness in the TFL or some type of ”mechanical” issue.

Well the noticable size difference in tfls, as well as glutes. And im referring to glute med.
Tfl on the left side is chronic in ache/tight and sore, any rotation of my leg forces a TFL contraction. And what ive been doing is serious TFL tissue work. And leg extension and 1 legged deadlifts with kettle bettle as well as monster band walks. The weak TFL is noticeable cause there is next to no TFL contraction on external and internal rotation of my leg. Doing weight internal rotation movements, Very controlled leg press pushing through heel as well as quad work is helping the weaker TFL. All in all i feel much better, But im guessing years of being in this situation will take more than a week to sort out
