Panhard and LCA install problem

[carldev96]

:mad: :mad: :mad:

Arghhh, I'm just to damn weak [img]smile.gif[/img] I cannot loosen the bolts holding on the panhard rod and lower control arms, they are just to rusted. I used some lubricating oil but that has not helped at all. Is there anything I can use to get them undone? I just wish the rear spring wasn't in the way so I could get a second torque wrench in there.

I've been working the bolt for an hour to no avail, help!!

thanks

PB Break-away. Stuff is amazing!!! Let that sit for 5 mins between applications. Then use 1/2 inch rachets or really large wrenches with a pry bar. Should be like 4 ft in lenght to get the best torque.

or

Air tools :D

Thanks Teal, things are starting to come together. I've got the panhard bar on and one of the LCA (its still untightened) I just have the drivers side LCA to do. It's been fun, but very exhausting [img]smile.gif[/img] .

Anyway, last question. I'll have to put the tires back on before taking it off the jack stands. Is it easy to tighten the LCA bolts once the car is on the ground?

Thanks

All done. It took me about 5 1/2 hours by myself, and I went slow to make sure everything was done correctly. I need a shower, but then I'm gonna go see how the feel on the road [img]smile.gif[/img]
