Guys in trying to install my ingalls camber kit. Camber bar is done, but for the toe arm I can't get the bolt out thats attached to the subframe heres a pic



I already got this one out



Any suggestions on how to get this bolt out

 

rubber mallet?

 

Yeah, try rubber mallet. If you need a little more persuasion, thread the nut back on just the end and use a regular hammer. So you won't flare the bolt.

 

Believe me I beat the sh*t out of that bolt and it won't budge. I think I'm just gonna have to take it to a shop

 

You should see what i had to go thru to get it out. I ended up having to cut it out, and get a new lower arm as it was seized to it.

 

Yep had to cut that thing out. Other side came out with two taps of the hammer.

 

I realize I am bringing this thread back a little but:

What side did you cut it on? Between the bushing and frame on the bolt head side? Did you order a new bolt / nut from acura?

I have cut these before on a 92 civic and also a 97 accord so I have done cut 4 of these. But I really want to avoid doing this.

Also I have a big box of Honda bolts - nuts from tearing down cars that I could use.

Really don't want to cut this out and have my car sitting for 2 weeks waiting on parts.

Thanks

 

Im not sure if you got this figured out or not, in the second pic i cut between the right side of the arm and the bracket. That nut is actually welded together so i had to order another from acura. only like 2 bucks if i can remember correctly. It was frozen inside the arm. Lubed it up really good so i wont have this problem again

 

You have to cut between the mount and the arm on both sides. The bolt seizes to control arm. You wont be able to reuse the arm. You will have to get a new one. Also its not a regular bolt. Its a cam bolt (the threaded part is offset from the head) You will have to get it from the dealer.

 

Yeah I ordered new bolts and nuts. I ended up cutting it. Just got alignment today. All is well.

 

How is this set up im thinkin about buyin it would it give u more camber if u already have a camber kit?

 

The kit comes with a new adj toe bar and also a new adj camber bar.

So if you already have just a camber bar not sure if its worth it.

But this set is def. easy to adjust on an alignment rack. Any time you adjust camber your toe goes off a little. You need to adjust both to get it set just right.

edit: just saw this was in 2g section. I am not sure how these are sold for this gen car. 3g comes with both toe and camber.

 

naa bro i have the upper camber kit wit the ball joint i wanna get the links too

 

So you have the front upper camber kit?

This is covering the rear camber/toe kit.

Front toe is covered with the outer tie rod ends.

Rear toe sucks from the factory thats why I replaced mine with ingalls and also the addition of rear camber adjustment.

Hope that helps.

 

i have this bro thats a caber kit to wanna get the camber/toe links to see if i can rn more camber

 

Interesting. No experience with those. Sorry.

 

You can only get more camber from the camber bar. Changing the toe wont give you more camber.

 

Yea thats the right way to get camber by using that but u can use the bars to imma get the bars soon im ordering them
