PLEASE HELP!!Changing front strut,cant remove lower strut bolt!!
something that works for me is to take a wire wheel on a drill, and take that to the threads under the nut, spray with a little penetrating lube & there you go, but i guess you got your nut off allready
Can't believe I'm reading this. Just got back form "discount tire place" was going to have them install Bilstien 5100 load level struts on my 2006 1500 Ram, After keeping it for a day and a half they called and said they couldn't get the lower a arm bolt out. Thought I'd check out here see if anyone else had this problem. Was going to give up and take it to stealership have them do it.
it'll eventually come out, but you may fock up the bolt in the process lol. my passenger side came out easy. but the driver side was a bish! BFH to the rescue. ended up focking the bolt up anyway, BUT thats an easy fix. just buy a new bolt from the hardware store lol.
No easy way to remove these lower control arm bolts. If you can get a hold of a magnetic induction heater coil tool that might work, but they are expensive. BFH ! will get it done, be patient tho.
Having same problem 2007 ram 1500. 66000 miles under neath is clean. So no rust. I spent entire day trying to get 1 bolt out thought it was me. It would budge finally got it backed out. But its not coming all the way out all the youtube vids are yeah 2 hrs a side. Lol i have 1 day on 1 bolt
