I am changing the lower control arms to mega byte jr.'s but i am having some trouble taking the stockers off. I have the shock off and the sway bar off. I also removed the nut that hold the control arm to the rear axle...but i cant get the bolt out. It just spins in the bushing. How do i get out that stupid bolt?

If its the one i'm thinking of, its not threaded ... put the nut back on 3 or 4 turns and tap it with the hammer, its probably just stuck ?

I just did this to my car the other day. It's just stuck. Try wiggling the control arm as you pull on the bolt. If it still does not come out, try lightly tapping the bolt with a punch till it pops out.
