Brainfart rebuilding front suspension!

I just had to use home made t-bar tool to create a backing (dog) to
drive a steel wedge against LCA socket, after thoroughly heating socket with mapp gas torch.

So, the heat expanded the socket, wedge with sledge hammer persuaded separation of t-bar from socket.

I left LCA stub shaft in K member to keep things aligned. After a few mighty blows the parts began to separate. Had to keep pounding until the t-bar was all the way out.

After 54 years (1967 Barracuda) that baby was stuck! The other t-bar came right out by hand, lol!!!
