    Ok, I cleaned a bit of the old grease and gunk off and found the screw on plug at either end. Got the steering arm/pitman arm cap off, but what then? FSM shows a spring plug, spring and ball seat inside, presumably exerting some tension on the steering gear arm ball in the socket on one end and the bellcrank ball and socket on the other end. What do I do next to get the drag link released? :?

    The ends of the link are slotted and you need to turn the steering wheel a little and the ball will move to the big end and remove.
