I'm into the process of renewing bushes, and have problems removing the A-frame/upper-link to chassis (i.e. traverse) bolts. They are tucked away behind the exhaust on one side and driveshaft on the other (this one can be opened with brute force).
The exhaust side seems impossible to remove without doing something with the exhaust - which I fear will break somewhere if I try to re/move it.
It's a possibility to cut the bolts with an angle-grinder, but then the 176Nm and Nyloc tightening it after renewal of bush will raise issue again next day...
Can't find any movement in these bushes, but I do not feel like leaving it old while everything else is brand new blue polybushes.
Q: Anyone found a cheap trick to undo that Jeepy bolt?
