Default Alignment issue

basically the compensator arm bolt that goes through the frame is seized - is there anyway to loosen it and get it free? i don't want to pressure it too much in fear of breaking it.... we've torched it and it's still stuck pretty good

The bushing on the toe link is fucked. Burn it out, and get a new toe link.

Odds are, the bushing is facked, especially if you've been at it with the torch. However, when mine went it got seized in the frame side. I had to cut an access panel below the rear seat to get it out.

ahh crap i hope i don't have to cut - i'll check out the bushing first - we heated up the part where it connects to the frame - the actual self locking nut.

daryl, would u happen to know the price of the replacement bushing and bolt?
