Actually Bill I'm working under a lift so I'm not going to have jack stands. The only thing that should be falling anyway ( I think) should be the tie rod and I'll be holding on to that. Yeah, I'm not looking forward to getting that 3rd arm loose. I have been told that you can work the pan out without lowering the tie rod, but it's (allegedly) tougher to get back in and keep the seals on straight, so I'm going to lower it. Should have said this is my 56 pickup. Thanks for the guidance..
