Changing the control arm on my Lumina!
After PB Blasting those bolts 3 or 4 times, I was ready to give it up and take it in. :(
Then I called around and $75 was about the going price (labor) "WITHOUT SEEING IT FIRST"! And swearing up and down they were going to have to remove the rear disc to get at it.
So I went out and gave it one last try...lolz!
Don't believe them! I used an extension and went underneath the disc. :p
Those 2 back bolts are 24mm
The ones up front are 15mm inside and 19mm outside.
The new part looks very heavy duty compared to the original part!
Just thought I would post a success story every once in awhile...lolz! :)
