front suspension rubber sealing rings
I need to change the lower rubber sealing rings on the suspension arms where they meet either side of the lower trunnions I understand that the front arm will come away when all the bolts / tie rod are removed but what is involved to remove the fulcrum pin whilst leaving the rear arm in place, is it a case of supporting the rear arm and then driving out the pin from the rear through the trunnion until clear and then inserting the new thrust collar and sealing ring and then pushing the pin back in through the trunnion

Re: front suspension rubber sealing rings
Support the chassis on an axle stand and support the outer end of the suspension arm securely with a jack. Take the load off the suspension with the jack and you will be able to remove the fulcrum pin. Caution. The lower arm is under load

Don't take the pin out - just pull the complete king pin forward.
