I have a 91 LS400 with 234k Miles. I was doing a weekend project in which I converting the air shocks to regular struts, replacing the sway bar, along with the bushings and the sway bar links and changing the rotors and putting on new brake pads and bleeding the systems. I have everything done except the sway bar, the bushings and the links. It seems that I may(?) have stripped some screws but I was going in the right direction and it just keeps turning in its threads. I have already got 1 screw out and I need to get out 3 more. Can any one suggest a tool or trick or technique to get the screw out because I dont want to take it to the shop if it's something I can do myself....As always I appreciate your help and let's keep it on the board...

get a pry bar behind the head and lever it out as you turn it, sometimes that helps the undamaged threads catch.

make sure you have a new bolt to replace the damaged one.

I was using the pry bar that I had and it was too big to get behind the head. I was going to go to the auto parts store to see if they could loan me a smaller one. I also thought about drilling the bolts out and just re-threading the hold and replace the bolts as well....you think this could help? Thanks for your input as always PD....

use a screwdriver, you arent trying to pry it out. just a little tension.

I tried that as well for tension and it just keep turning in the threads...but maybe I'll try a bigger flat head to see if it will give me more tension...I'll let you know if I have success...thanks...
