I set about replacing my front coffin arms this weekend, all went well until it came to removing the bolts that hold the coffin arm to the subframe. The nut came off fine, but on both sides of the car the bolts are stuck in the bush.
I tried a lot of plus gas, impact gun in both directions and quite a lot of hammer. No joy.
I've now ordered some replacement bolts and will have to try some heat next weekend.
It seems unreasonable to me that the bolts are so stuck on a 7 year old car.
Has anyone else had the same problem? If so how did you get them out? Can I expect the rear ones to be this bad too?
