I'm putting the stock suspension back in the Eclipse. I got the 2 rears done pretty painlessly and the drivers side front was cake.
On the pass side front, I ran into some shit...
There's a long bolt that goes through the horseshoe looking thingie. That same bolt goes through a bushing. Well, my problem is, the bolt was frozen to the bushing and while trying to break it free, the bushing started turning but is still frozen to the bolt. The more I turn, the bushing just falls apart. I tryed just hammering it straight back through but just flattened the end of the bolt. I need to get this thing OUT! :(

ok, so I guess I gotta get a new control arm bushing. :( gonna need a new bolt also since it looks like a mushroom. Still haven't gotten the POS out of there yet. I soaked it with some PBBlaster and will try again tomorrow. I'll prob have to cut the end off after I break it free cause I don't think the end will fit back through the hole anymore.
I hate this kinda stupid shit...
