Got the SH radiator and pump and other minor items cleaned up today. Took her for a spin. Terrible wobble on the left front wheel at road speed.
Shimmed and tightened up the tie rods. No difference, The wobble is coming from the spindle.Wheel bearings are good.
Now I am trying to get that spindle out of the axle housing. I have the upper clamp opened up, bolt out. and have used a BFH to drive it down and out to check the bolster bearings.
It's not dropping. Has come down about an inch. What's the secret in getting that axle assembly down and out of the spindle housing?

remove the 'upper clamp,then remove the woodruff key from the spindle.spindle should fall out of the 'knee'
 
Thanks, got it out of there. Bottom bearing in good shape. All that work and the problem must be in the tir rod ends.

Gordo, worn out spindle bushings will cause that wobble. Is this the one with the Schwartz? I've got those bushings in stock.
