its time to remove the control arm altogether, burn out the bushing with the fused bolt (or you can have it pressed if you don't mind paying someone), and replace the bushing (and the bolt, of course). You can have a shop press in another stock bushing, or you can order some ES polyurethane bushings for a bit of a performance/longevity upgrade (the center sleeves of the ES bushings are brass or something... they will never fuse to the bolt).

:edit: seeing how much of a horrible ordeal this stupid seized bolt thing is, I went polyurethane, and honestly, I can't see how anyone would but themselves through the self-abuse of just throwing a stock bushing back on. If so, AT LEAST cover the bolt in anti-seize or something... but I would recomend just switching to polyurethane.

Moreover, its sad that this is such a common problem that we all have dealt with. Its the achille's heel of an otherwise very easy car to work on at home.

youre doing all this with the wheel still on??? dang.

 

or heres the very simple, very cheap solution. Not necessarily easy, but oh well.

drill out the bushing. I did it, and it will do for a while.

 

Then cover everything in anti seize as I did. and you're done.

 

unfortunatley, i cannot leave my car as is for a week waiting for the the poly bushings.

now about getting the last bolt of the control arm out. i'm worried about now braking that bolt and going through yet another terrible ordeal.

does the "Control Arm Bushing, Rear, Polyurethane, Red, Honda Car, Kit" include new bushings for all three holes(trailing arm, strut, subframe)? if so i'll go ahead and order them.. would i need a quantity of two? one kit for each side or does it come with all 6 bushings?

for now i may need to have a shop press in a stock bushing just so i can get the car rolling again. but i'll replace it when i get the new poly bushings

 

yup... time to burn that bushing out. That broken bolt is stuck in there for good.

 

i put the wheel back on for the night. help hide the fact that my car is up on jack stands on the sidewalk... this is why i can't really leave it as is for a week waiting for bushings.. its blocking the side walk :rick:

 

is there anything i can try? just for a temporary fix to get the bolt out.. until i get the poly bushings

 

it only comes with four bushings... the lower shock bushings are not included in the rear lca kit.
