I went to do the back brakes....
I found the wheel loose...and then the axle nut had somehow come loose....
3 weeks later.....got off the entire knuckle piece (with wheel bearing destroyed, hub destroyed)...but good einstein father of heavenly science..... the bottom 2 bolts were impossible to get off..... they were rusted solid to the sleeves....in other words my car was riding on hinging bolts against A-frame......
the top bolt came off no problem....I managed after one week to work one of the bottom bolts loose....the sleeve is messed up.....but the other bolt was fused, rusted solid into the sleeve...had to cut it off.
The top bolt is definitely a 14mm...the 2 bottom bolts what are they?...they are UNAVAILABLE...nothing in the supply house matches these.
The knuchle by the way lists at $400.....with bearing included...well isn't that nice....hope you still have a good hub which goes for about $120.
Bottom line...in this land of plenty is there anyway to replace the rubber bushings with new sleeves and bolts that actually match the sleeves?
Next stop....the twilight zone....er...a junk yard 2 hours away that has an SC buried in mud....uh dear....see ya in about 3 days.
