Steering wheel straight again. Fitted up new Superior adj. draglink.
Also after a few hours of bleeding knuckles , inventing new swear words while attempting to take off old tie rod ends. I finally caved in, lost my s*** and went to supercrap and bought a tool that done the job in 2 minutes !
Currently battling the panhard rod & the rain... Results so far Panhard & rain 5 - 0 Hodge.

Hodge..
You shouldn't need that tool or the head fks.. Just give the knuckle a good belting with a DECENT hammer and it should drop out!
My Patrol ... Different story.
I've had some decent battles getting tow bar tongue out , diff drain plugs out, factory steps off.. .
Basically any iron thread on chassis ,suspension or driveline , I had to undo for the first time since owning it , was a all out "man vs. metal" war...
Previous owner used to dip the car into ocean fishing with no washing afterwards, hence the corrosion-weld took over on everything !
