Ok... So, i put my car up on jackstands so that i can take off the front passenger suspension to replace the upper strut mount (one of the bolts, spins with the nut)

The problem i have, is our wonderful swaybar linkage. There is more rust on there than a nail that fell appart from rust. It looks almost as if rust has consumed the bolt, and melded it together. Ive tried everything from beating on it with a hammer and breaker bar, using PB Blaster (that stuff is usuall a godsend) I have run out of ideas Every bolt on there, will not budge. Anyone have any ideas?


Thanks

Rob
 
New endlinks cost about $20 each. Cut it off and replace it. Been there; done that.
