Then I usually pop the top ball joint off with a pickle fork and do the lower when the knuckle is off. Unbolt the ABS line also. Replies to this message: 97jimmyco (Apr 21, 2007 5:55 am)

Replying to: repairdog (Apr 21, 2007 5:30 am) Thanks! not quite sure how you would use the wood and hammer without offsetting the hub and jamming it, but the jaw puller eventually worked. Its amazing what having the right tools for the job does.
#5 of 5 2001 GMC Jimmy suspension by copydoc Jun 03, 2008 (5:57 pm)
My 2001 Jimmy has 84,000 I have new OEM shocks all around and New tires. My problem is that the vehichle rocks back and forth either by the wind or any small or large bumps,rocks, holes ect. Front end alignment seems to be a tiny bit off. Does anyone have this problem or ever had this problem? Oh it is a 2wd 4 door. Thanks
