I rebuild last month the passenger side front suspension. I ended up doing it all including replacing the trunnion and lower wish bone bushings.
Now working on the driver side suspension rebuild and hit a snag when taking off the lower wish bone A - arms. The left lower A-arm (close to the steering box) is not coming off. I was able to take off the lower A-arm bracket which attaches to the frame with two bolts, and the lower A-arm is loose and starts to slide off. My problem is that the steering unit is getting in the way when sliding off the lower A-arm. The bottom bolt for the steering box is larger than one inch so was not able to get a wrench on the bolt to remove and create clearance to remove the lower A-arm.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Steve
