I stand corrected! -Just look at me pounding a threaded rod into two mushroomed ends-where is the wisdom in that-it is with you, getting the right tool for the job! Carl, I found the perfect tickle to your funny bone, but I can't seem to get it posted-but be warned, it is lurking out there waiting!

Hey Will:

The first time I tried pulling spindle pins, I told myself that I was NOT going to mushroom the threads, I said this several times. And I listened to myself, right up until the point where I messed them all up. One does not know when to stop pounding (usually) until 2 or 3 strokes after one should have stopped. At least that's how it works in my shop. This time around, I accepted Gary's (beandip) gracious offer to lend his tool, and I couldn't be more pleased with his offer, or the results.

I am going to cut the pin in two places tomorrow, and hopefully use my shop press to remove what will be the center section. If not I will be setting up a similar tool to pull one from a 280Z parts car. If all goes well, then I will strip and paint the pieces over the next several days, and get the new urethane in place shortly thereafter.

Sorry Bill, don't know if it works or not mate, I just copied it out of a book.

It MUST be true though, after all, the book is written and published by Yanks.

It sounds easy enough, but finding a spare penny might be tricky these days!!
