JIBBBY Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Try using liquid wrench or WD40...Spray the bolts generously and let is sit for a minute and torque it down... Those suspension bolts haven't been turned since the car was built, exposed to the outside elements they tend to freeze up and get stuck... Use a breaker bar with and extension and torque, it will give... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKperformance Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 The other problem is the bolts go through an eyelet inside the rubber bushing . So even if the bolt turns it is stuck to the eyelet and will have to be cut off to be removed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
