BoGlE Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Started the job of replacing the front lower arms(how I wish I hadn't). I've got all the bolts off apart from the 2 camber bolts, I've got the nuts off but no matter how much heat or hammering I do they're just not moving. My grinder isn't big enough to go through the shanks either. Does anyone know another way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mark Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I did all my suspension arms last year. Front Lowers I had to heat up, a lot and then drive them out with a hammer. Rears wouldn't budge so cut them all out with a thin cutting disc in a grinder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I had to use a big disc grinder on one of my lower fronts as nothing would shift it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob W Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 As above. When I changed all the suspension arms on mine one of the lower fronts and a couple of the lower rear bolts were seized. I had to use a grinder to cut through the bolt, takes time and a lot easier on a ramp so you don't end up cutting the subframe to pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoGlE Posted September 22, 2016 Author Share Posted September 22, 2016 Appreciate the reply's. Think I'll go up machine mart and see about a bigger grinder tomorrow. Pita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
