Re: Upper control arm bolt removal: hits steering box?



As I recall there's only one way to install that bolt as it is flat on either one or two sides so as to turn the cam. I believe it goes from the inside out. Dodger and I just worked on a '66 Ply and that's how it was. I do believe there were 3 bolts on the steering box too. Be sure to check them. Only one was holding on our project '66 and the box was jumping all over when turning.

much easier as I'm ordering new stuff anyway.
Many thanks!
