Would appreciate hearing from those of you who have done this. Thanks in advance. [Reply]   [No Email]

You will have the front end suspended in the air with nothing underneath it for a while, so be careful. The pivot pin should push out easily, because it's usually worn and well lubricated from oil leaking out of the steering gearbox. None of it is rocket science. Lift the front, remove the pin, roll the old front end out, roll the new one in, and replace the pin. Drop the front, and drive away.   [Reply]  [No Email]
