    Rear Lower Control Arm Bolt

    I was wondering if anyone was ever able to remove this bolt without cutting it off. I would love to know any tips on how to remove this bolt without killing it.
    Thanks!

    Oh no, frozen toe adjusters!!! Such a pain, the tolerance between the inner sleeve and the bolt is very exact, add some rust and they become one. I tried everything to get mine unfrozen, but I couldn't recover them. Had to cut them out w/ a minihack. Also installed prothane bushings @ the same time so trashing orig. bushings wasn't an issue. Try soaking them repeatedly w/ PB blaster. Heat works well except it'll cook the rubber bushing. If you have access, maybe air chisel, hammer it back through?

        I wasn't aware that FnF was making a toe arm. Anyway I'm running the megan toe arms without any issues for well over 2yrs now.
