#2575, "Taking bolt of the upper rear and front struts........HELP!!!!!"




          

DAMN, is there an easy way to get those bolts off? I tried to install my upper and rear tower bars today and those nuts are freakin' hard as hell to take out. I've tried wrenches, sockets, vise grips, I've even tried hammering to handle of wrench to see if I can at least budge it without rounding the nut. My uncle said to try and go to a shop where they can use an impact wrench or something just to loosen it up. There's gotta be an easier way........damn I'm weak, LOL!!!!!!!

The three bolts that hold the shock mount in? Mine came off no problem with a 3/8" ratched. if they are rusted use some rust buster. If you want more leverage use a cheater bar (basically a long piece of strong(lead) pipe)
