Title: Lower Control Arm Removal
Post by: globb on June 14, 2010, 12:03:02 am

I have been struggling with the removal of my lower control arms on a  GMC C1500 to put in new bushings. The one bolt seems to be seized in the control arm bushing. Any ideas on how to remove this? I have tried oil and heating it, but it still won't budge.
 
Any suggestions would be helpful.
 
Thanks
 
Greg

try using a pickel fork and get behind the bolt and an impact hammer and pry it out
