You have to at least , disconnect the bottom camber arm ( at knuckle,saves having to mark adjuster ), tie rod and spring bolts so you can lever the knuckle out far enough to drop the halfshaft.I disconnect the swaybar links also.The knuckle will lever out as far as the bushes on the dogbones will let it. I use a long 2 x4 horizontal across the camber bolt mount levered against the frame Think about it; the halfshaft is between 2 fixed points with the uni caps seated in the yokes. You have to be able to move one of the points to get it out Usually the uni caps are frozen in and need a tap to crack loose. |
