The nut comes off ok but the driver side rear shock bolt on the trailing arm is rusted solid and I can't get it off. Tried some heat, liquid wrench, hammer+drift (made the biggest impression on my hand when I missed...), and a pipe wrench. The pipe wrench sorta rounded the head a bit, but no movement? How do I remove this?

I was going to remove the trailing arm (with shock attached) and see if my local machine shop can press it off. Not sure if they can or it would damage the trailing arm.

Also thought about grinding off the head, removing the shock, then taking it to the machine shop for pressing.

HELP!! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/headbang.gif)

Thanks,
Spoke

Only place to get it. Might wanna try Silikroil. Supposed to be even better. They have all kinds of deals running at any given time. Their Floway degreaser is unbelievable, puts that Castrol cr*p in the weeds.
