lowering springs/rear LCA bolt help
i'm installing my lowering springs and im having trouble getting the bolt out that holds the damper fork to the LCA. i know this is a problematic bolt and usually freezes up, but my question is; is the bolt threaded inside the bearing that''s inside the LCA bushing? or should it just hammer out? i already broke the tack welds on the nut and all its doing is spinning inside the LCA. ill probably wind up getting new LCA's but i need to get this damn bolt out.

it happened to me once..what i did was i bang it out really hard and damaged the bushing..and had to buy a new bushing from honda and the bolt too..and had a shop to press the bushing back in the LCA. the money i spent on oem parts (had to pay second day shipping cause it is my DD..cant afford the down time) were almost as close to buy a nice set of aftermarket LCA ($99).

It is not threaded into the bushing. It should not be stuck to the bushing, but most are due to rust. New LCAs is probably your best solution.
