I am lowering my car and i got the frount done with no problem. it is fine and dandy, now i am havinig problems with the back, that bolt that you have to take off of the sway bar with a allen key and an open ended wrench i cannot get off. it is really froze up. i need help, can anyone give suggestions?

Cut em.. Thats what i had to do..

put the wrench on there and hit it with a hammer. make sure to not hit your arm.

if i cut it then where can i get a new are ro can just that bolt be replaced and where cen i get it at. like autozone or something?

pb that wd-40 but better stuff helps.

a friend of mine said he got his from advance auto, but theyre all the same autozone etc....give it another bang, though and add in some colorful words and it'll come off!

yea advanced auto

cool b/c i just tried to get the D@#$ thing off and it is not going to come off. do you know how much that piece is and can i just get the bolt or do i have to get that whole thing?

put a vice grips on it on the ball part the rubber boot... squeeze it. then go buy new ones their like 8 bucks a piece and you just need two.

the part on the back of the bolt, right. that is what you are talking about?

nahh not that. just squeeze the actual boot it's squishy. there's a metal piece in there to clamp onto. just vise grip it really hard.

so that rubber boot has a ball in it. i take that is the bering that they talk about on the internet. so i have to squeeze that and it will come apart and then buy just the boot. and this will come apart and then will that part slide off or somehting.

thanks

i also wanted to know if anyone thinks that i am going to need a camber kit?

No, you wont. You might need to get it aligned though.

you must go get an alignment any time you do suspension modifications
otherwise you get funny tire wear, pulling ect....

but no no camber kit needed for our cars

ok i have another question tha tyou guys might be able to answer. i am trying to get that back off and i got that sway bar blot off and not i am trying to get the other two bolts off that are on the bottom and the to one stops and hits the brakes as i pull the boly off. any suggestions???

ok cool i got it thanks guys

yea, i cut my sway bar out too..hah gotta get a new one...aftermarket time..heh

that is what i did, and just to let everyone know that i am done and i am going to post pics soon.

I cut mine too, just yesterday, it cost me like 40 something bucks at autozone for a new sway bar end link. But the damned thing wouldn't budge even after everything listed here. gt2nv, coming to my meet?
