I was doing the bushings, so I decided to do the ball joints as well.  Didn't mess with the brakes, though.  Make sure you take ...   10-11-2005 12:59 pm

Thanks guys.  A night of soaking and a bit more of solid smack or two or three and they came out. ...   10-09-2005 07:40 pm

Once again with the timely advice Mark.  Thanks.   I am doing the rear bushings at the same time as the brakes.  I went with the ones ...   08-10-2005 08:53 pm

Once again the list comes thru!  A few days of PB Blaster and then just little heat resulted in a very satisfying "POP" and off ...   08-09-2005 01:38 pm

I figure it is probably (a), as the brake drum spins fine and the brakes also worked well.  So I will proceed accordingly, with the ...   08-07-2005 12:46 am

Thanks for the tips, but I have still been unable to budge the thing.  I have been whacking around the back lip of the drum off ...   08-06-2005 07:22 pm
