control arm ecentric bolt removal

[omiotek]

Are both removable or is only one from the upper control arm? If it is only one how do you remove the threaded bar from the middle of the arm?

Thanks

The 38/39 upper control arm that was used onthe 38/39 Chrysler/Desoto on the upper outer bushing uses an eccentric bushing to make the adjustment for the camber/castor.  The nut if I remember correctly is 1 3/8.  The metal part is as you mention eccentric and threads on the the upper control arm thrtought the hole inthe upright control. The other end of the control arm of the upper end is threaded  and when you thread the bushing into the arm this is what  moves the  upright in or out to set the camber caster for the front wheel.    

 

The other control arms have two metal bushings that should unscrew from each end. to remove the control bars and bushings.    

Does this answer your question?
