Any tips on getting these things out? Its the one at the bottom of he shock. The nuts off but the bolt wont budge, it'll twist a wee bit but no sign of it coming free

the bolt is probably rusted to the metal bush sleeve and the bush is turning with the bolt
try penetrating oil and leave overnight then put the nut on the end of the bolt so you dont destroy the thread and give it a few smacks with a feckin big hammer
if it still dosent move you will need to hacksaw them out and buy new bolts

yeah second that i got mine out with oxycetalene torch. gota be carefull tho cos shock may go bang and one of these bolts adjusts camber.

try pushing it out with a pry bar. if that doesn't work, use a big hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer. if that doesn't work use a bigger hammer.

Ive beat the crap out of it nate, then beat it some more, and some more. No good. Gonna hae to go at it with the grinder, just couldnt be bothered.

Its at the rear of the car james, no adjustment

Heat?

you may well find that if you take the head off it, there will still be enough of it in there to stop the shocker coming out. try taking some of the weight off the suspension by lifting the wheel slightly

you may also be able to squeeze a ball joint splitter like this on there and squeeze it out



or make up something that will do the same job with a few bits of scrap

Had another go at it with a big puller, in push mode. Bolt would not budge and i had some force on it!! Will see if i can get a lend of a ball joint spliter or knock something up. Just got my rear coils unseized but reluctant to go near the car with heat or a grinder, considering its right beside the filler neck

Just made a contraption that looks a bit like forest gumps legs in the early days, see picture, was just getting it going but wanted to watch shuttle launch. Hopefully do the job

MIne had to be cut out as the rust is like a weld and the bolts wouldn't budge.
