Must just be tight fits. Old cars are goofy.

There's a reason I swore off suspension work about 10 years ago. I've just NEVER had it go easy on me. And I'll be damned if I'm dropping my lower control arm like I did last time.

Mean strength and anger will get the job done more often than not...
Interesting, mine adjust pretty damn easy with the spanner wrench once you lift the weight off them.

Do the adjustment rings have Allen head lock screws to tighten up after you adjust them?
