Subject:      Removing Upper control arms
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed

        I have a 91 GL. The front end cannot be properly aligned because the
bolts holding the upper control arms are rusted solid. The mechanic   I
go to is reluctant to get too aggressive with them because of the work
that would be involved if they shear. I also have a 90 GL with a less
rusty front end, which I'm parting out anyway.


How hard would it be to remove the control arms from that one, to
re-use on the 91? Does anyone know of a link to instructions on how to
do this? Bentley is really unhelpful for front ends later than October
1984!


TIA
