So i'm taking off the struts from my STI to mail off to have them revalved. (they make noise, stick and have 92k miles on them)
Front right came off no problem, front left i couldn't get the lower bolt /nut to come off with my harbor freight 350 foot pound rattle gun.
picked up a breaker bar and i was able to get the nut off, but the bolt won't come out. i got the rears off with a lil bit of fighting but no real drama.
so the nut is off i can rotate the strut/knuckle but even if i beat on the end of the bolt with a hatchet (i don't have any real hammers) it won't come out, and i'de have to either discconect the brake line or take off the brake caliber to get the breaker bar on that side of the knuckle/strut (which may be my only option now .. i dunno)
I've yet to use PB Blaster on it, but i tried some WD40 .. maybe its the fact that it was snowing on me while i was doing all this
2" in about 90 minutes all while i was wrenching outside..
anywho any advice is greatly apreciated.
