Need Help Finding a Replacement bolt please
Today I tried to change the lower control arm bushings. The ones that require the subframe to be dropped. I got everything apart fairly easily and then find out that bolt is basically seized to the shaft in the bushing. It just spins, the rubber is so bad that it is basically broken from the arm.
I'm thinking about cutting the bolt off completely but I don't know where to find another one for cheap. Its the special one that is used for adjusting the caster.
Can anyone offer some suggestions please?

I have the same problem. I'm pretty sure its the reason why my car rides weird on the highway.
I'd just get a new one from the dealer, it's a bolt and probably only cost like $10 at most. The rear lower arm is expensive, I don't think the bushing is available seperately...is it?
I'm also in Delaware. I'd have to say that my GS is probably also one of the cleanest......and definetely the only one in the state (possibly country) with a V160 6 speed swap
