    Upper control arm issue

    It worked! I got some of that Free all spray and let it soak in. Then wedged the bushing sleeve and sprayed some more inside and gave it another try and the bolt slid right off. Thanks again for all the advice . After two days of smacking it and cursing . My neighbors probably thought i was crazy!

    Upper control arm issue

    Ok i will try the drill as i can get the sleeve and fit a flat head in between the sleeve opening . I torched the rubber bushing off so the control arm is loose. Im still trying to see if the penetrating fluid will go in between. I will let you know how it goes today. Thank you

Couldn't find the piece but still messed with the switch and was able to turn on the engine with a flat head and fired right up. I will need a new actuator i ordered (Dorman brand) . As you can see in...

    Front diff. Fill up

    I only jacked up about two inches up . I though since i have saggy springs that was the reason it was less. .but i was able to only get 1 3/4 also. Drove it today felt good. Does the front differential still spin even if its not in 4x4 ? Im trying to read around some mixed reviews . Thanks
