Finally got the GD control arms off.  I ended up using a 22mm crows foot with about 30" of extensions up through the motor.  I then attached a 14" breaker bar and cranked like a crazy man!

 Aside from lifting the motor, this is the "easiest" option.
 
 Car looks like it's in good hands :Dsigpic

 Well the ol' girl sits pretty fetching low now. I just got back from a drive, and it handles like a dream (other than the alignment issue) haha! However, I will get that done later as I am not going to drive the car until spring probably. I will upload some pics soon.'89 "is" = M technic II build mode.

 I have some more random bits to do - then I am going to get it painted. It will not be this year, but probably next year. I want to make sure I save up enough for a proper job. I also need to put a new set of dog bones in the rear as the bushings are gonzo. Other than that she pulls stronger than I remember. It is almost like the car gets a little bit happier with every new part. ;)

 Love the direction. I'd love to get an mtech 2 on mine. Haha...I might considering I had a run in with some deer and my front valence won't be the same. But that would be pulling a Jordan wouldn't it?
