Tim,
I assume you are referring to the large bushings which thread onto the lower
link spindles, and have the zirc fittings in them. If so, they're 1-3/8
inches. (They measure 1.32 across the flats, so an 1-3/8 socket will do
fine.) Since these bushings are a press-type fit into the lower A-arms
(they're pulled into place when the bush is threaded onto the spindles), so
you'll probably need a torque wrench to get them off.
Bubba,
Are you out there? Please weigh in on this one. I've only been told heard
how these are assembled/diassembled.
Gary
