Slammed my sedan today!!... But ofcourse, working on cars never goes smoothly. So my rear bottom bolt on the struts are seized!!! Any idea how to get it off?? Plus I'm gonna raise this bad girl up because she's scraping cement eeeverrywherreee... Any suggestions how to keep slammed but still be a functional daily? I'm running Function and Form Type 2's Btw. And no ignorant comments, keep it to yourself!!! Good day y'all!

Pb blaster, WD 40 them today and tomorrow, and after Monday give them another try.

PB Blaster and a long 1/2 breaker bar. If that doesn't work try using a propane torch to heat the nuts up. Don't do that while you're using PB Blaster or anything, since it's flammable.

Urbanengineer 03-22-2014 11:56 PM

Propane torch should really be your last method. You can turn a regular ratcheting wrench into a 3' breaker bar with a tube from your plastic broom or your floor jack.

think Visually ....

Ratchet + broom stick

Did all of that... And the collar on the fork broke lol

coffeysm 03-23-2014 12:28 AM

This might be stupid, but you are turning it the correct way right? lol. You can try drenching them with PB Blaster/Liquid Wrench, try tightening it (Very Minimaly), and then try loosening it again? Never had to break the torch out on the G yet, but on my Volvo had to use it several times. But, a breaker bar with another pipe over it for leverage should be good enough.

Thaaa_king 03-23-2014 12:52 AM

Lefty loosey, righty tighty right? Somehow, all leverage did was crack that collar off! I didn't even want to try the other side

Thaaa_king 03-23-2014 12:53 AM

Oh and broke two Craftsman wrenches in the process lol thank God for lifetime warranty!

coffeysm 03-23-2014 01:46 PM

Wow, that's insane, lol. If you don't have air tools or want to pay a mechanic to do it...I would move on to Propane. Just heat around the nut and bolt and keep trying to break it loose every now and then. I'd also actually purchase a real breaker bar if you don't have one already. That thing has broken loose just about everything I ever needed and I got it at Pep Boys for like 25 bucks.

Thaaa_king 03-23-2014 01:59 PM

used air tools also...lol im just gonna wait until i have a day off and take it to a shop. costs more but less stress!
