Had a stuck lower suspension pin and couldn't get it out after a week of
soaking it in Kroil. Didn't want to use the burn-the-hell-out-of-it
procedure, so what's a mother to do?
I used the expanding-bolt-in-the-hole method to push out one of the pins,
but the second came out about 1/8" then started to distort the frame mount
toward the front.
After trying this for a week, I used first one then two pickle forks
together and it came right out.
FWIW--Harbor now sells a fixed single pickle fork for $2.99. I already had
their 3-piece fork which was used in combo with the above.
Also noticed they sell 2 different 555-pc assortments of cotter pins for
about $6 each.
PS--got a great deal on hyphens if anyone wants to borrow some. :-)
