Just thought id fire this up for anyone who has trouble getting these buggers out from the hub. (not the wishbone, thats easy lol). Had a search through here and found that some people buy or make up pullers. I found an easier way, i apologise for not providing any pictures,
-Basically remove the pinch bolt
-open the knuckle up a bit using a screwdriver and a hammer
-Leave the lower arm attached to the screwed end of the joint.
-acquire a 3-4ft pinch bar
-place it between the knuckle and the wishbone
-boot it down as hard as you can
-pops right out. PB blaster or plusgas will help, but its the shock that gets them out.
No need for a special puller. Hope this helps, I'll try and get some photos uploaded later if i can.
