An apparatus and method for replacing trunnion bracket spindles is disclosed. The preferred apparatus comprises a first plate and a second plate, threaded rods extending between the plates, and wing nuts on the ends of the rods to prevent the plates from spreading apart during use. The first plate includes a ram mounting pin to which a hydraulic ram is secured. The hydraulic ram is used to force the old spindle from the bracket bores and to force the new spindle through the bores. Also, the preferred apparatus includes scissor jacks to help position the second plate and ram with respect to the trunk suspension. The apparatus of the present invention is used by cutting out a center section of the trunnion spindle, forcing the remaining sections of the trunnion spindle from their respective bracket bores, and forcing a new trunnion spindle through the brackets bores.
