True dat. All of it.

The Honda guys have this problem a lot. I have only run into it once with our cars (once was enough). Nope didn't get it. Ended up getting a new lateral arm. Just couldn't get it, so I ended up smoking it out, lol. I heated it up until the rubber was on fire (I get pissed sometimes). Then I cut off one end with a sawzall.

It was messy.
