remove bushings

did a search...a lot of noise...

Yes...we are at the point of all nuts being off. No desire to buy a press. I may have bought a hand tool. Don't quite remember..part of the gift from all the meds. Will look. May be cheaper just the lot down to a service station and have them do it. ...I wikl ask them....antway, we are here..



Banging doesn't help :D

Dragtop, didn't see it in your post but that could be me. I am envious that you can use a sand blaster. Major problems with that in our reason. I have built a dryer station for the air and it that doesn't work, I give up on sand blasting completely.

Thanks

That picture isn't bushings. That is the tie rod ends and drag link. You need a tie rod fork or two hammers to pop it apart. If you dropped the assembly with your K frame I think a trip to the car wash would be in order to clean things up. I find some cheap oven cleaner helps clean off the crud. Cleaner parts will be easier to work with plus you will be able to see what is really there.
