insalled my gound control coilovers today. the front wasnt hard at all. the ginding that i was scared about is very miniscule compared to the amount of grinding one of my friends had to do on his 240sx.
when trying to do the back i ran into this problem. *piece a*(real name slips my mind rignt now)-the one that connects the rear sway bar to the strut assemly had a rusty bolt in it and there was no way i'm getting it out. i'm still not sure what im going to do about this. if i need to cut it i will but i want to see how much it will cost to order this replacement piece from toyota first. i have a pic of the piece and some of my car just need to develop and then scan them. i will keep you updated on this. also if anyone knows a good way to remove this piece(if you know what i'm talking about) let me know. cormudgen |

welcome to the club, 1 of mine was stuck on, the only way to get it off was a saws all, I replaced both of mine and greased em up before I put em on and now they go on and off no problem. This was apoor design alot of people have trouble with this. Get a penetrating oil wd40 will not help this situation. WD40 is not a lubricant. it is a water displacer
