Ok, I am currently in the painstaking process of breaking bolts. I am putting in some goldline dropsprings in my car. The front was a piece of cake but the rear...haha... a different story. I was taking off the bolt that goes through the fork and the control arm and it broke. Now I decided to go so the drivers side rear and what do ya know. That same bolt snapped too. Now I am left carless and don't know what to do. I am guessing I need new lower control arms. I know they were a little rusty but I let them soak in WD40 and I also heated them up when they wouldn't turn. Can someone please help.

Thanks,
CHAD

get new shocks and lower control arms... Or get the bolt cut out and get just new lower control arms..

You just need new LCA bushings. Pull the LCAs off and take them to a machine shop and they will press the old ones out and install new ones for you.

I tried to remove the whole LCA but the bolt under the drum is frozen too. And I figure they are going to break too. If I get aftermarket ones do they come with all the hardware? Where can I buy aftermarket lca's for a good price?
