Well I've got the coach on jackstands in the drive way. Trying to pull off the control arms to retrun to Jim K via Steve F.
Everything is loose. I guess I need to pull back axels towards FD indorder to get clearance for the lower ball joint removal?

That's right, George. I was actually able to remove the axles from the knuckles while the other end was left attached to the FD. Took a lot of finessing. In the end it may have been just as easy to remove them from the FD. Your mileage may vary.
