Compressiom Rod Bushings seized
Went to replace my compression rod bushings, but they are seized too the bolts on both sides. Ideas on what too do? Also the rear shock bushings are seized too the bolts as well on both sides. Ideas? Plans?
Thanks.

That happens. Use a BFH to knock them loose. Heard horror stories of needing to cut them off, hope it doesn't have to come to that.

Have you tried a pry bar yet? Leverage is your friend.

Use a large breaker bar - put a pipe on the end of it for extra extention/leverage

I'd highly recommend these compression rod bushings over others
