help..... rear strut wont come off.

[marntson]

so im installing some springs in my car and i get 3 of the 4 on and..... the last one.... the right rear.... is stuck and will not come off. i have been outside kicking the strut trying to break it loose for the last hour. i have hammered on the fugger with a rock, hammer, breaker bar, my foot, a baseball bat...... im outta ideas.

and now for the real kicker..... it is about to snow.

any ideas from you guys would be appreciated. thanks

i just did mine this weekend, 13yrs and 145K miles on the stock shocks, they were seized to the rear mounts. bolts came out, shock WOULD NOT come off. only thing that worked, HEAT! hit the mounts up with an acetyline torch and off they came...

PB Blaster and a two fingered gear puller got the driver rear off for me.
