I've used a whole can of PB Blaster & I've gotten the Pin to move a little out of the bottom of the Strut, but it won't come all the way out. Both Sides (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
I've never had this happen before. When I'm trying to pry the Ball Joint from the Strut, I'm literally lifting the front of the car off the Jack Stands! |
