I'm installing lowering spring. I started on the rears first. This is supposed to be easy!!!! Well two days later still no progress on the rear!
The problem is the lower control arm to spindle botls are stuck in there. There are 2 on each side. Well on the passenger side I got the two nuts off and only one bolt out. I banged it with a hammer and got it out. This was the bolt toward the front of the car. The bolt to the rear of the car is stuck in there. I can turn it but I can't tap it out. I banged the hell out of it, sprayed it down, banged some more....nothing. The same is true for the driver side...that botl to the front came out but not the rear bolt! I've tried having the jack under the arm in all positions and still no luck.
Right now I'm trying to heat the bolts and push them out with a c clamp. I alreay broke one c clamp!!! If anyone has any ideas please help...this is really fustrating. And on top of that ford dosen't have the replacement bolts either!!!
