Subject:help needed re removal of ball and socket joint
From:Judith Barr/Leo Girard

Hi again
Still stuck on the final step of installing accelerator cable on 85 Vanagon
Autom. The old part was easy to remove EXCEPT for the @#$%& ball and socket
at the rear end (near tranny). It is free-wheeling, loosely spinning but
does not want to lift off.
Is brute force prying the only way? Anyone have a trick, insight, knowledge
on how to accomplish this frustrationg feat?
Thanks,
Leo
