That side is where the camber spacer is, that's really not gonna move when it hits its max adjustment in either direction. Not sure how other people removed theirs, but it's pretty common to get stuck. I've never experienced it anyway.
Doing my driver side lca and one bolt will not come out, budge, or turn 360. I use air gun and pry bar with no luck.
How do I remove it? Please help.
You can try using a jack to lift the control arm up a touch. It's possible it's not seized and the weight of the control arm/chassis is holding it in if the arm isn't perfectly straight to allow the bolt to thread through the hole.
Other than that, PB Blaster, lots of elbow grease and air tools are the next best bet, and if that doesn't work, I've seen members here take a sawzall and cut the bolt if they get seized that bad. I got lucky on mine, and all I needed to do was use the jack to relieve some pressure off the bolt, and then it came out fine.
the camber plate will allow that bolt to only turn +- 45 degrees or so. you will have to hammer it from the other side once you get it to turn. i personally had to cut on either side of the bolt to get the control arm out, as it was seized inside..
thanks for the help guys. I sold it last night with PB Blaster. I will try to hammer from the other side today and I'll let you guys know what's the outcome.
