I have removed and completely dismantleled my front suspension and I wanted to 
get the parts bead blasted and painted. The only part I can't remove is the one 
half of the upper A-arm from the Shock absorber shaft(same for both sides). I 
had planned on indexing the shaft and arm to provide reassembly guide although 
it obviously does not want to come off.

DON'T DO IT!

Leave the arm on the shaft. It is indexed.  Why do you want to remove it?
