The camera cable finally turned up, but, better yet, the SM card reader finally came! Pictures to follow... eventually.
I got the rotten beam further disassembled tonight. Every time a little bit more... The two ball joint tools I got are amazing. The one from Doghouse Repair is a relatively light duty number that removes the bolt end from the eye. It bent on its first use, but that joint must have been particularly tough because the others popped out after the slightest torquing. The ball joint press has been nothing short of magical, well, with the aid of the pneumatic impact wrench. The battery powered Dewalt impact wrench is nice, but the pneumatic Crapsman would make Tim Allen asphyxiate from grunting.
Got one stubborn "allen" bolt to remove from the trailing arm and the anti-sway bar. What the heck is the right tool for the anti-sway bar mounts?
The chassis parts are piling up. Brake bits, ball joints... I ought to order a cage this week. One company in particular looks good.
