I am going to have to swap out everything in the front end due to my original bushings being totally destroyed

a guy about 90 miles from me has a dakota with all new red bushings throughout the front end, and says i can come pull em, but i am not 100% how to do this, someone sent me a write up of it, but i dont remember where its at on the forums

im guessing my main thing would be having to compress the springs to allow me to work getting the arms out with any kinda pressure from the springs


i need to do this within the next few weeks, so any and all information would be absolutely appreciated

 

uppers are easy, just 2 bolts and the ball joint. Once you have the upper off, just drop the bottom as far as it will go and yank the pins from the bushings.

easier said than done

 

look in the service manual its all in their

 

don't forget to lube those bushings, those are probably poly, and will squeak (use silicone)
