Suspended Animation

I made a little more progress on the truck suspension today. I removed the ball joints from the lower A-arms. These are pressed in and required a bit of force to remove. Of course there is a speciality tool to remove and install them.

Next step: Remove the 8 struck bolts from the end of the control arms. Yes, eight stuck bolts. After this, it's almost all down hill. A little degreasing, some sand blasting, some painting, and then the front end suspension can be re-assembled. That was half of my goal for this summer. It seems I am behind schedule. Ce la vie.

The total goal envolved the rear suspension as well.

Eight.
