Default my bubble is burst...

i decided today would be the day id begin my hyperflex kit install.... among a few other things along the way.

looks like im not gonna be doing the hyperflex kit myself, no idea how im gonna get the rear LCA's off friggin 11 years of road and 221k miles on those bolts, nothing in my garage is gonna loosen the bastids.

nothing quite as fun as writin checks for work that i should be able to do myself.... :sad:

Soak them in penetrating oil. If you still can't get them loose, you can torch them off if you have a torch.

PB blaster will work. Spray the shit out of them, let it sit for a while. If not, let it dry and then heat it up with a torch.

if you don't have a torch a hair drier will also work... it will just take longer.
