What's a Dremel? Sounds like the name of a hamster. Don't be afraid of using some elbow grease and grunt!!

The saga continues..

While the arms are out I have access to my jacked up swaybar mount. At sometime the left mount ripped off, and instead of replacing the whole thing, A flat plate was welded to what was left of the mount .

That's A problem when its supposed to cradle the sway bar. Time to cut both mounts off and replace with stronger units.

 

Left side...Sad

Trying to cut the weld and or the mount .. Not the body!

Take a look and start pealing it back like a sardine can...

The last bit is the hardest part to do

Its just not enough room to work but it can be done...

All done Smile.... just needs a little clean up with the grinder and its good to go...

Left side took about 2hrs figuring out what to do and trying not to screw anything up

The right side 30 min...
