Hi i have a 76 corvette and i need to replace pretty much the whole rear end. I am having problems getting the controll arms off, the bolt that goes through wont came off i got it broke loose and when i try to push it out it hits the frame? how can i get this off? thanks for your time

[axle bastard]

torch, grinder, chisel, replace bolt opposite so nut is on the side by the frame?

Go to national corvette restorers society and ask your question. don't start grinding until you get the right answer. <a href="http://www.ncrs.org" target="_blank">www.ncrs.org</a>

IS THIS THE FRONT PIVOT BOLT ???
IF SO THE ONLY WAY IS GALLONS OF PENETRATIING OIL, PLUS MAYBE HEAT, REPLACE W/STAILESS FROM VETTE BRAKES. IF HEAR IS USED PROBABLY WILL HAVE TO REPLACE BUSHINGS ALSO.

IF THE LOWER SHOCK MOUNT AND DOESNT COME OUT OF THE "FORK" REMOVE AS AN ASSEMBLY, TAKE TO PARTS STORE AND PRESS OUT, AGAIN MAYBE HEAT, IF SO BUSHINGS ALSO

WHILE @ PARTS STORE PRESS AXLES (PROTECT THREADS)

WHEN REASSEMBLING TONS OF ANTISIEZE WILL HELP NEXT DIISASSY

TO REMOVE BOLT FORKED WRECKING BAR UNDER HEEAD OF BOLT (HARD TO GET TO INSIDE FRAME "POCKET", FROM OUTSIDE CANNOT GET A DIRECT SHOT AT THE BOLT DUE TO BODY SO CANNOT DRIFT OUT. JUST DID THIS AND IS VAST PAIN.
