I've put off pulling my '68 front end until Wed. That will be my last chance.

Just curious about any tips as I've never dropped a crossmember complete with steering before.

Should I leave the steering box and idler attached or remove them. Need to do this as quickly as possible but just worried I might damage something after its pulled if they are left attached to the crossmember.

Also curious about removing the steering shaft from the box, I'll check Haynes but never done that either so any suggestions appreciated.

Thanks All.
