Damnation..
Found a 850Ci @ the scrapyard with only 12500 miles on it, I wanted to rip the control arms from it, they´re near mint but I can´t for the love of god get the lower strut assembly bolts to loosen..
I´ve been working at them for 2 days, I´ve even taken the entire strut assembly off on the left.. They seem welded on!
I guess I´ll bite the apple and get some stock lemmies instead..
Just had to rant a little!

What kind of tools are you using?
These are always tight but nothing a long breaker bar or a pipe won't solve.
Let the junkyard guys have at it with a smokewrench if it's that tight.

Actually there ´s 3 of them there, 1- 90, 1- 93 and the 94 I´m trying to take apart. All the leather is there.. everything.. such a pity!
I need to get a looooonger breaker bar for sure!

Use a hammer on the wrench, None of these bolts are that tight man...
Has anyone else had a nut beat them?
Never mind, my 1st ex beat me lots.
