Files the papers! The divorce is done!!!! The best part is the bushings took the ride as well!!! Whew.....Propane with a rose bud tip and a extra set of hands. Cost me a six pack. Love good neighbors!

I have just as much trouble getting perches out of an A axle. They are tapered and they pound in there, and seemingly become one with the axle. They did not need to be tapered!- Top

Beau you said the bushings came out with the pin so was the knuckle turning on the bushings? If so that knuckle is worn better check those bores for size they may be wallowed out those bushings should turn on the pins and I know you drove it but that does not sound at all right.- Top

Like I said get the measurements on the new bushings and check the bore if it is not tight it will not be any better than what you had. Did you get both sides out? That bushing should not be split, problem is you never know what was done before you got the car. I drove mine out with a brass punch and they were good after i got rid of the white lithium grease that was all dried up.Last edited by BNCHIEF; 01-15-2018, 01:51 PM.- Top

Tom, I'm worn out as well but glad it is over. Pressed new bushings in and everything looks good. I will ream later this evening after I get some work done. Then hopefully get this front end on Saturday and be good to go.
John, great video!- Top

Mitch, did you say the VFF has a repository of You Tubes? That perch removal vid above would make a nice addition. A vid is worth a million words.
Wonder what Tony Hillyard has made- Top

Hi Dave,
We have factory videos in the Articles forum. These are mainly for history and documentation. I would like to create a Forum or Subforum of Technical how to type videos. I am not sure what Tony has either but i will be finding out.
Here is the direct link to those videos

As previously stated by someone and not me if possible it would be nice to see some vids made at Brents workshop. His pics of the fordor wood were fantastic from the stand point of showing it done poorly and then properly. Restoring a car is one thing the cost associated with it are another matter altogether.- Top

Agree. A good vid of a lengthy process is time consuming and tedious. It may take an individual from each activity to do the filming and editing, if Brent allows this. And as much as I would like to attend, I don't think that will be possible- Top
