ok.. so i am requesting your help with the Center link... i cant get it off!!! tie rods came out with just a pull... all the nuts are off... it just wont budge... i tried 3 diff size pickle forks to no success =( help??

[Rev_D21]

No pickle fork needed, take the nut off, turn the wheel, take a sledge hammer and give the arms a couple good whacks, it should come free. Pickle forks never worked for me.

i used a mallet... but.. it wont budge... am i hitting the arms or the center link???

[Rev_D21]

Since you aren't saving the centerlink I would give that a bunch of good whacks. It should fall right out. Hit it with some PB Blaster to help things along.

do they make a puller for such things???something like this?!?http://home.comcast.net/~alloy...d.jpg

That could work, did you get the Harbor Freight link I posted in your other thread, that's the way to go if it's totally stuck.

im going to try the sledge today... im going to give it hell!! then ill order the puller haha

[JC87HB]

the sledge worked =)... just waiting on my parts now.. i need to get my pitman off too!

[Rev_D21]

I would use a pitman arm puller for that. Congrats on getting the CL loose.
