Had to call my neighbor who is a part time mechanic who showed me what a BF Hammer is. As many of you can tell i didn't grow up around many tools, so to me a BF Hammer was the one my dad had that i couldn't pick up with one hand when i was 5 years old.
He lent me a sledge hammer and a longer pitch fork device. Wouldn't say it was easy after that, but it was certainly easiER.
So now the car is back together and i htink i'm going to finish the other side of the car on Monday as i have off from work. Hopefully it'll go smoothly now that i have the BF Hammer.
One question though... is it possible to tighten the control arm bolts too much? (no torque wrench here, maybe that'll be my next purchase) I just feel like i might have tightened them too much... what are the consequences of doing so... as i'm also afraid to just loosen them now as i know you're not supposed to re-use these.
Thanks again for the encouragemnt today, it made me feel like i was along w/ this!
