Datsun Dreaming
I got my Moog ball joints in today. Still collecting more parts for another suspension overhaul. Should have everything ready to install by the end of the month.
I use propane. If you still need help you can drop by when I have the torch out in a few weeks. Do you just need the spindle bushings removed?
Just the remainder of the FLCA bushings torched out. All that'll be left after that is installing the ball joints. :/

Did you get that tool from harbor frieght for the ball joints? I'll let you know what day im going to get to work on it and you can stop by if you still need to.
I gotta get all the bushings(uprights and F&R LCA's)/ball joints torched/pressed out then pressed in all the new stuff, then modify them with grease fittings along with that im going to cut and weld reinforcing plates to the front and rear lower control arms for extra strength, Install the new adjusters on my toe arms and install new traction rods, swap the hubs over to the Z32 uprights and install the lower brackets on my coilovers. I have to do all that crap in 1 day.

Nah, I flaked on the tool and haven't been able to get over to a Harbor Freight lately. They had a sidewalk sale too. Damn it.
I was thinking about the reinforcement plate idea as well. How are you going to go about it? I figure that with enough reinforcement, they'll be nearly as flex free as tubular units.
