Greetings, First off a little project history, currently I'm in the process of rebuilding both my front and rear suspension after finding a cracked steering knuckle and several corroded suspension arms / links, not to mention just about every bushing is bad. During the process of tearing down the front passenger side suspension I found that the bolt holding the transverse link in place was a rather shoddy repair done by the previous owner, hopefully the photos posted below will give you all a good idea of what exactly is going on. Considering how far gone the transverse link bushing was (Egg Shaped), steering wheel shutter, and pulling left on heavy braking I have a pretty good idea this is partially the root cause since the transverse link does not correctly align with everything else once it is installed. So I have decided to do the correct thing and replace the member rather than letting my car suffer from another shoddy repair. 
I have been unable to find a well prepared write up on how to remove this, and what precautions I should take during the process. I have searched thru the FSM and unless I'm missing something, there really isn't a removal guide that I could locate in the manual. I was hoping you guys / gals could point me in the right direction, or share your links / experiences. Thanks,
Aaron PS - I apologize for the Image quality and size, I'm currently writing this from my cell phone.
