Default Re: 7 tooth steering box

Aloha,
Got it. Got the steering box bushing out, the one inside the steering box for the steering axle. I spend a lot of time figure out who to get it out, finally I came out with a solution by building a jig. Used a couple of treaded rod with a metal plate on each end. One plate resting on the bottom of the steering box and on the other end the end plate is pushing on a pipe clamp that is pushing the busing out.Than I crank the bolt on one end until there was quite a bit of pressure on the bushing, but it wouldn't budge, so I use a sledge and tap the plate that put the pressure on the pipe clamp and the the bushing started to come out. I then keep on cranking the nuts until the bushing completely came out.
