Re: Helpful Tips: Removing Perch Bolts From The Front Axle, Model A
I have had this problem and could not remove the perch . I took it to a machine shop and well over 20 tons were pressed on it but no go . Heat was applied but not to cherry red but still no go . In the end I repaired the perch, the shackle had worn clear through the bushing so I cut out the very thin part and fitted a new bushing .I then MIG welded the bushing in place . It was a neat repair and not very visible and would never ever fail in my lifetime . You would have to do a monster mileage to wear through the bushing again if kept greased as recommended .
