Hoping you guys can help;
I started into the front end on my 63 and have had a heck of a time getting it apart. First I could not figure a way to drive out the studs on the driver side so that I could remove the A arm, so I started trying to take out the steering shaft instead. After getting everything on the steering shaft loose I now can not seem to get it out. The only option I am seeing is now pulling the steering box. I have everything on the shaft loose and have gone back and forth with it but it lacks 1/4" coming apart and it will not budge. I guess my question is whether or not I am missing something on removing the steering shaft possibly or is removing the box just the standard way? I have a tear in the grease boot so I need to go ahead and fix that while I am there. Is there a trick to getting the shaft out?
