Re: Splitting a 68 C10 Trailing Arm

I have taken two sets of them apart, blasted them, painted inside and welded them back together. Drill out the rivets/spot welds and separate them with a chisel. Spray the front mounting bolt bushing with a good penetrating oil and twist the individual halves back and forth to get the penetrating oil worked into the bushing and work them apart. Being from Iowa mine were in a lot worse shape than yours though.
