I have a 94 gsr, and had recently had an alignment done. The front was aligned fine, but the rear couldn't be aligned due to the adjuster arm being froze? I looked at it myself and this is the arm that is connected to the trailing arm and its bolted to a part of the chassis. I was told that the only way to get this bolt off is to have a body shop cut that part of the chassis out? This would be extremely expensive to have done, and totally blows my mind that this is what i have to do to have my rear aligned. Does anyone know or had this problem before, and if so how did you deal with or fix it?

 

I heard the nut part is tack welded inside the chassis. It could be free spinning. However, I never had a problem removing the bolt.

 

I'm not sure that it will break lose. I have had 2 places tell me that the bolt is froze and they can't adjust the toe on the rear because of this. I'm just hoping that I won't have to have anything cut off of the chassis and welded.

This is what you probably have to deal with.

 

So the bolt should be cut off and I can just buy a new compensator arm, and washer/bolt for this? Obviously I will also need to have "I" shaped cuts in the chassis to put everything together, and then weld it back? This is going to suck...

 

Best case is the bolt is only frozen in the compensator arm bushing. In this case cut the bolt and bushing other either side of the compensator arm using a sawzall or cutoff disc. Pull the arm out and hopefully the piece of the bolt remaining inside the nut will just unscrew out. If doesn't unscrew try heat and penetrating fluid. If that doesn't work, drill into the bolt and use an easy out.

Trouble is there isn't much clearance to work with. Good luck!!
