So ive got a little bit of work done in the last week or so. here it is:
these are the old subframe bushings
theres two methods generally used when removing them, one is to burn out the rubber and cut the sleeve, the other is to cut both the sleeve and the rubber. I decided to cut both just to hopefully save on the mess.
after cutting the rubber around the inner sleeve, I pounded it out from the top
after that came cutting the outer sleeve, this was a pain in the ass in so many ways
After I got done with this I dedcided to press out the rear LCA ball joints. that was very easy. the RLCA bushings though are essentially the same design as the subframe but alot smaller and harder to deal with so I decided to burn the sleeves out and go from there.
yeah It would have been in my best interest to move that full can of paint before starting 
so anyways all that was about 2 days ago. I go to work on it today and decide the hell with cutting out bushing sleeves for hours on end again. I had been thinking about dropping the gas tank because I wanted to get the rear frame rails when I start seem welding in the near future. today I just decided to do it.
I had never done one before but it went pretty easy, most likely due to the lack of rust.
on an unrelated note, im thinking of buying a stud gun to pull out a few dents, anyone ever use one?
