Subject: Re: HELLLLP! Frozen rear shock lower mount bolts
You may be toasted now that the local guys have been on it with heat but I
use something called Kroil and it frees up every bolt I've ever tried it on
after a good soak. The most amazing stuff I've ever found. I had my doubts
but I've turned into a believer. I've only been able to get the stuff mail
order from the company (Kano Labs 615-833-4101). Why liquid wrench is still
being made is beyond me, that stuff is worthless!!!
If nothing else works break down and take it to a weld shop. If they can't
get it off then they'll be able to jury rig it I'll bet. My old '84 went
that way on the front shocks (before I discovered the Kroil stuff)
Good luck - frozen bolts SUCK!!!!
