This page will be getting more work later right now it just shows the removal of suspension from the frame.

I started by removing the rear suspension.  This was pretty straight forward, except for the lower control arm to frame bolts.  Despite having an impact gun, and 135 psi compressor, they just wouldn't budge.

Sooo out comes the breaker bar, and the chunk of pipe.

This is open bushing surgery in progress. The bolt was rusted to the inner barrel of the bushing. So I had to cut into the bushing and burn out the rubber to get to the barrel and split it open to free the bolt.
