Rear leaf spring shackle bolt?
« on: Sep 24, 2008, 07:10:39 PM »
Im haveing a real tough time removing the front shackle bolt, ive pounded, torched it, air hammered it. It will spin with an impact, but will not slide out!?! Please tell me what might work.
All Im lacking is a flux capacitor and the ability to hit 88.

keep hammering.... heat it up until it melts the rubber in the bushing
