started at 930 this morning installing and road tested (definitely needs alignment - pulls right) about an hour ago. Let's just say getting the power flex bushings in was a total bitch!!!! an extra scissor jack definitely helped. Tomorrow - will clean her up and get an alignment. Then look into getting paint job.
will provide more details tomorrow - this is one whipped individual
Steve, haw great is that, well done.
Got a picture of the bracket you made up to get the arm level?
Again, a good write up will be forth coming and thanks.
Wayne - no pic but similar to what Ungn did - he used a piece of 4x4, I clamped a couple of scrap 2x4's to the frame and then set the control arm on top - the 2x4 will give and I had to stop and readjust the arm a few times.
If someone has to do this, I recommend you take the time - mark the angle of the control arm into the wood and cut a template, then take a piece of 1/4" steel plate and bend it into the shape of the template, screw it into place and it would provide a much sturdier surface to press the ball joint in.
