Pictures! I have too much  to deal with to take pictures! I would have to coerce someone to be the recorder for the occasion. :)
  When I swapped the rear axle, I only took 2-3 pictures, and that was because someone else was there and wanted to.

I was pretty stoked last night when I got done pulling the parts. About 2 Hours for the first knee, and an hour for the second one, with no air tools. Thank god he had spring compressors. I cannot imagine doing that in a junkyard without a jack.

That's a Great deal and haul right there.

When i pulled my A-Arms, I did it in 2-3" of muck and water without spring compressors. :mullet:
Surprisingly wasn't that bad, But i put up a barrier of interior parts between me and the spring before i reached around and loosed the final bolt.

"Pop" goes the weasel. :hick:
