Been working hard, but having fun. I am now at the point where the frame is completely striped and I'm scraping and sanding it for black seal, Del Mar. Im not going all the way with the sandblaster this time, trying
to do a more reasonable build. For those that are taking a frame apart, I read on this forum of how to not use
a coil compressor. It worked great with no injury's or problems, but I didn't have the pressure of having the engine on the frame. I have a short video, hope it helps. Where I say in the video, loosen the top ball joint bolt, I mean nut, I took quite a few good hits with a sledge hammer but finally popped down. Be sure to take the shocks off first, loosen the the lower A-arm large nuts, take out the two nuts on one side of the A-arm bar and one on the other side. There also is one big bolt that needs to be take out, this way when you drop the spring out, the
whole a-arm falls down and off. I also had a good tip from a friend when you need to pull a Axel when you don't
have access to a puller or just don't won't to spend the money to rent one. Take your jack, remove the lifting cover, then there is a hole, run your chain thru the hole, put one end over the stud, the put a lug nut on to hold it on, now do the same with the other end of the chain, using two studs will give you equal pull, leaving, a foot or
so give your jack a pull back real fast, it only took me two pulls, and out they came. Wall la.
