Re: K Frame Removal

I get them moving by pulling the lower control arm nut and placing a block on the front of the arm and giving it some good hard whacks with a big hammer. That usually get the T-bars moving enough to pull them.

I don't have a tool, but there is nothing that should have the arms in tension mode. I have, by holding the upper control arm moved up and down as far as I can and have shook, wiggled and done every thing I know to do and nothing. Hell I hate to ask for help but these things are new to me and have kicked my butt to the tune of 2-3 hours trying to remove them. I'm ready to fire of the cutting torch.

Although I have read the online how to's I can't get past where I am now. I have the shocks, upper control arms off at the top, the torsion bar adjuster is loose as I can get it. The torsion bar clips are out in the back the bolts are off the front, the strut rod bolts are off, but I can't get the suspension to move enough to get the struts off.
