I was installing the Legacy Outback trailing arm frame mounts today.

 

I had lifted a 98 OBS a while ago, that lift was a good training on installing the trailing arm mounts.
I lifted my new 2000 OBS and was careful to remove the trailing arm mount bolts by hand (on the 98 the Milwaukee Impact broke 2 of the 6 spot welded mount nuts off inside the frame).
 
The drivers side went well, but the passenger side front mount bolt broke the spot welds on the nuts.  I ran the bolt in an out by hand many times spraying it with kroll, but it still let loose.
 
Drilling the hole inside on Saturday to get a socket on the bolt.
 
So it goes.
