Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.

5/12/12:
Found a way to press out the front bushings of the front control arms, I also learned how to get ball joints out stupid easy.


Close up of socket, pipe, and vice method:

Bushings all out!


Both front lower control arms stripped ready for some PC action!


So I took off the caliper brackets so they can get powdercoated, and I discovered that both of my wheel bearings are shot. Well good time to get rid of those stupid ABS rings, ABS is the devil!


Custom bracket for my Vacuum pump, still needs a lot of work.


Both hubs need new bearings and seals.


I was outside for a bit, got some stuff moved around, pulled a cam gear I needed which was the toughest cam gear removal I've ever had the impact wasn't budging it one bit.

I figured out the mounting location for my vacuum pump and pulled off the padding from the firewall.

Hopefully my homework doesn't take me too long tomorrow and I can get the vacuum pump mounted and wired and head assembled and put on the motor.
