Subframe help

Post by **Ca_Silvia** » Thu Dec 28, 2006 1:04 pm

Ok i got all 4 subframe nuts off including all the bracketry but when i go to lower the jack to lower the subframe, the subframe does not come down with the jack. At one point we even lowered the jack completly off the diff and the subframe was just hanging there. Im using Spl's online install as a guide an it never ran into these problems.

Get a pry bar and pry each corner out little by little with the jack underneat it. It shouldn't be that hard.

Winner, ya turns out when i lowered the subframe down from some reason the metal sleeve inside the stock bushing was stuck to the body. Thats what was causeing it to bind up and all. Turned my 20 minute job in to 3 hours.Thanks for the help again guys
