trying to put my coilovers on and I cant get the bolt that connects the stock strut to the knuckle out.....ive tried everything, hammering the shit out of it, WD40, using a ratchet on the other side while hammering it.....Im thinking the only way to get this damn thing out is with a torch. Only problem is I dont own a torch and its a pain in the ass to bring it to a shop to have them do it. So anyone have any suggestions, this thing is really in there, already broke my friends snap-on flat head ( I know its not a pry bar)....my friend suggested using an impact gun but i was thinking that that will only spin it in place since only part of it is threaded....any one with any tricks let me know
