well guys looks liky me E34 is at my buddys house tonight. 2 problems we cant seem to figure out. We already broke 2 ratchets and decided to call it quits at 9pm. anyways the 2 problems I have are:

1. how do you get the thrust arm bolt out? BMW did a bad job designing this thing. No room to hold the nut.

2. cant get the balljoint on the centerlink separated from the pitman arm. how does one do this? other than that everything else is apart.
