i removed the two nuts about 3/4 the way back on the LU and i removed the trim tab and bolt under that, I removed the nut on the single bolt that comes up out of the front of the LU, and I lossened the two nuts that are up towards the front of the LU (they wont come off until the lU drops more)...OK so.. I heated the front of LU, bang it with rubber mallets ,wood and pryed with pry bar between two halfs. The back with seperated about 1/2but the front will NOT move, and its been soaking in liquid wrench all day! <br />oh yes this is a 25" shaft and im trying to seperate it just below the Leg and the top of the "long shaft extender piece" but it does not seperated there or at the seperation below the "extention piece"<br /><br />ANY HELp...or should i just beat the living day light out of the front bolt (as i've read it can be replaced, casue its just a stud.)<br /><br />thanks again...
