SPC Front Camber Arm - Unable to remove from control arm
I need some help or a tip on how I can go about removing the SPC camber arm from the control arm. The spindle seems to be stuck and I can not get a punch and mallet underneath with enough force to try and pop it out.
Any suggestions on how to remove it is much appreciated. http://www.the370z.com/members/speed...camber-arm.jpg http://www.the370z.com/members/speed...camber-arm.jpg |
Some type of gear or ball joint puller?
|
Yea or a bigger flat head screw driver than what I have to hammer down in the split from the top to spread it open enough to pull the spindle out.
|
Whack it with a dead blow hammer for best results.

I have been whacking it and its not budging. I am hitting it from the bottom up with as much force as i can get between the rotor and control arm. Am I supposed to just whack the camber arm?
I plan on going by Lowe's or Home Depot today to get a heavier duty flat head screw driver to use as a wedge to try and get it to release the spindle just enough to be able to pull it free. |
If the suspension is down at full droop, there may be some bind keeping it in there. If so, try jacking the corner up so it's at a more normal ride height, and the upper arm should come right out. Be careful when you do it, the spindle will want to fall "out" and towards you.

Bigger screw driver did the trick. That and a healthy dose of PB Blaster. Came out with ease.
