I appreciate the help. I like the grinder method too but there's a few holding the spring hangers on that I can't get to with the grinder. ...and I don't have a n air-hammer YET. Looks like I'm headed to Sears tomorrow to get one though. The ol fashioned hammer and punch method sucks! Not to mention, layers and layers of petrified oil and dirt make using the torch a little adventurous. Thanks for the heads up on the rear...it will be next. For the front, the bumper kept everything in check.
I checked out your project. Nice work. It helps with morale to see that others are suffering along with me haha. Keep up the good fight.
