I have a 10 lb Sledge with a 12-inch handle. Because of its mass you only have to take a small stroke to make the metal sing. Because it's the vibration that causes the separation of the parts. That comes from an auto mechanic who has been working on cars since 1963. And I love physics. Give it a try next time. Great video

Thanks for the video. I have tons of success with "Deep Creep" when i need a penetrating oil for auto work. Try that over wd-40.

If I ever need a really potent penetrating oil, I'll mix 50/50 acetone and ATF. The problem is how to store it, and the fact that acetone and plastic doesn't get along very well.

All that hammering to get it loose! This is why I'm soaking mine with PB Blaster all weekend and doing this on Monday!

You don’t have to drop the subframe far at all the which ever side your taking off take off just that bracket and use a pry bar while getting the bolt out

@@BartSparrow123yes just do one side at a time this avoids locking the steering wheel down and taking off the steering shaft the only downside to this method you won’t be able to torque the bushing down to spec

@@diegosantos8324 I'm not worrying about taking the steering shaft loose, I have done that before and found if you use a grease pen to mark both sides of the shaft before you separate it, you don't even have to worry about keeping the steering wheel locked straight for reassembly. Thanks for the advice. I'm working on this today.

Yeah I’m no mechanic but did all the upper control arms, Sway bars, struts, and engine mounts. The lower control arms were a no go, took that straight to the shop before I was left stranded 😂

It's not that bad, $20 for a tool and a $6 can of penetrating oil and you could have saved yourself $600.

I don't have an air hammer worthy of that task. I'm sure Eric O's "big nasty" would have taken care of it in no time.
