2nd pic. I used a ball-joint press to remove and install the bushings. I used this same tool to install ball-joints in 3/4, 1 ton front 4x4 axles. 3rd pic. Old bushing out. 4th pic. Measuring the OD of the bushings. 5th pic. Installing new bushings. 6th pic. All new bushings installed.

3rd and 4th pic's. Knuckle all together and ready to be installed back on the Z. If you are doing this. Now is a good time to install new wheel studs.

Ran into a problem when installing the shock. In the 1st pic. You can see the new spacer for the monoball bushing. It's hitting 2 tits on the shock. In the 2nd pic. You can see them better. I had to grind these down to get the bolt through the holes. Took me about 1/2 hour to figure this out.

1st and 2nd pic's. Everything installed.
 3rd pic. One issue that you can't get around. The bottom bolt for the brake caliper hits the traction arm. I had to remove the front mounting bolt of the traction arm off the frame and move the arm out of the way to install the bottom caliper bolt.  All finished and alignment spec are -1.75 camber, and 1/16" toe in. Hours in doing all of this. Took me 8 hours with a couple of wiss breaks.
