As I remember, the brass trunnions screw off the mating piece with a LH 
thread on one side and a RH thread on the other, so yes they are certainly 
threaded. Find a copy of Bentley.

Is there a trick to removing these?   I have the pin and nut off and the
pressure off with a jack under the spring plate, but the bolt is really
stuck.   I can hardly turn it with a socket and a 24" bar, let alone back it
out.   Is it threaded in the lower a-arm?   Can I put the nut on it and
whack it with a BFH?   It is not binding in the vertical link, because I can
move that back and forth at least a half inch (and which is why I have to
get this thing out.).



Any help appreciated.
