i don't know if this is the right place ot post this, but i need help with my lower tie bar installation on my 97 civic. i can't seem to get the lca bolts off, i never took them off since i got the car, i tried a hammer and then used all my energy and they still won't budge, any suggestions?

 

use like wd40 or something like that, liquid wrench or something of the sort, let it soak and try it agian.

 

one thing is that u should try not doing it in the winter, the other thing is that a lower tie bar does absolutely nothing to your advantage. but if you really need to get them off, put a wrench on the bolt, find a long *** pips, slip it over the wrench and then try, just dont be surprised if the bolts crack in half, doing stuff like that in below freezing weater isnt fun, lol, do it indoors atleast. also wd40 or liquid wrench does the trick, soak em bitches real nice first.

 

if i were to take it to a muffler/suspension shop how much you think they will charge? i'm thinking to just get it professionally done when i get my catback on... anyone know price range?

 

Get a couple feet of good strong poll put it on the end of a ratchet and start pushing. WHEN the bolt breaks(cause that is what the bolt dose) Drill and put new one in.
