I need to lower the front end of my car but the adjusting bolt on both sides is rusted stuck. Ive been spraying liquid wrench to hopefully loosen up some of the rust, i think i might have rounded out the inside of the passenger side because it is stuck. What can i do? can i grind down two sides of the bolt head and get a wrench on it to loosen it up?

BTDT.
If you can find some Kroil... try that. Second choice is PB Blaster. They are the best penetrating oils on the market, IMO. Alternating some percussive maintenace (tapping on the bolt) and heat applications may free it up. -Rusty |
