korndawg Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Brass punch and a big ass hammer does wonders. If that doesn't work, get a bigger hammer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZ Olie Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Sound's like the bolt is bent, or a bad bushing in the A-arm. Any ways you should check it out after you get it out and replace the worn out part's. I would use some type of lube/spray to slick the process of removing this part. Also befor re-assembly check your zirk fitting to make sure it's not plugged up for Fu-maintance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

korndawg Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Well i beat the shit out of it with a hammer and doesnt want to come out but Ill find a way to get it out! There's a 3 step process to this. 1. Hit it with a hammer 2. Get a bigger hammer 3. Go back to step 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYUK Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 if it is seized in the sleeve it s not coming out, i cut the ends off with a cut wheel on a 4 inch grinder.pull the a arm out and trash whats left of the bolt and sleeve.e bay has the new parts you need, some hq`er gotta have a bolt and sleeve.

trex banshee Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 I agree with NYUK i had to do the same thing i cut both ends of the bolt off with a grinder and cut off wheel but then took the a-arm to a vise where icould get more room and really wacked the shit out of it with a really big hammer and it finally came out. Then i just ordered a new bolt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
