Greetings All,

I'm in the process of installing new front shocks (RIP to my ~20 year 
old KYBs...RF was shot). The RF side was a cinch...took a few 
minutes, but in attempting to remove the LF shock I am hung up at the 
lower bushing. I have tried a mallet, pry bar, hammer/chisel on the 
outer ring, but it's still stuck. I hit the area with a bunch of PB 
Blaster, and was thinking of getting out the MAPP gas, but before 
getting medieval on it I was wondering if anybody might have a 
tip/trick up their sleeve to share. TIA
