Last week I took an 86 apart that was NEVER apart and it was a plow truck its whole life(200k) and IIRC it took 8-10 hits per side to have them on the floor

I tried it and I was over 100-150 strikes with the slide hammer adapter. I used a 10 lb slide hammer.

I bought the slide hammer attachment..I haven't gotten to use it yet.after the last time I had mine apart I was inspired to get the right tool.I sure hope it works as well as I hope.

It works every bit as good as you hope it does. Lol. 3-5 minutes vs 6-7 hours for me.

And I didn't do my dust shields any good with the chisel.
