if i were you id move the rear spring hangar back and run a longer single shackle. that or just run the toy/chevy double shackle setup. front spring hanger? as in the front hanger for the rear springs, or the front springs?

i thought you had to move the front hanger for the rear springs up?

[808]

anyone have an idea on how to get the pitman arm of or the steering box?
ive used all the penetrating oil i have. ive been prying and hitting all morning and it just wont budge. if there is a trick id sure love to find out

I usually soak it for a day or two first.

Tighten the puller a little bit at a time and bang on the arm (pretty hard, with a BFH) a few times between each tightening. If you tighten it too tight you will know because the puller will break! Wear safety glasses please when you do this...

you are using a pitman arm puller correct?

wow. looks like im making a trip there in the morning. i hope they do it here too

There are a couple different sizes of pullers.....make sure you get one that the "ears" will fit between the arm and the bottom of the box. I would imagine that it is virtually impossible to remove the arm without this tool (without cutting) I would also recommend picking up some type of service manual (Haynes or Chiltons) while you are there! 

[ToYocRawleR]

Yea autozone here rents em but DONT use an impact on it.  They always end up breaking then your out the cash for a broken tool.  I think they say right on em not to use an impact but F it.

here are some updated pics of workin on it  today and KC's mad cutting skills
