Luvn737s Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Any ideas for removing a big suspension bolt that is seized in the rear lower control arm? I've soaked it on PBBlaster overnight and have used an air ratchet and a breaker bar and tried driving it out from the other end. Before I try removing the whole control arm, any garage tricks I should try? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazyeights Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) Perhaps some heat? Legacy, right? Is this the long bolt on the lower part of rear suspension? Those can be a pain. You might have to pull the trailing arm with it and work it over out of the car. Someone from the "rust belt" might come along with a better solution too.

Fairtax4me Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Trailing arm? Or the lateral link bolt? Are you replacing the bushing? Or taking it apart for some other reason? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvn737s Posted February 27, 2015 Author Share Posted February 27, 2015 I took the whole control arm off. I have to make sure the alignment stays at least close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
