Rear Lower Control Arm

[Richo]

Hi there guys,

Anyone has taken one of this rear control arms, I have 2 points out but the one that connects to

the hub is not coming out .

I have tried everything, but its not coming out, am I doing something wrong? Is there anything else I need to remove, any other bolt im missing?

If anyone is bored today and can give a fellow member a hand for a few beers that would be really appreciated. I am in crafers BTW

Cheers.

the hub??????? hmmm...... is it R33?? I have replaced on of these on mycar when i was hit in the rear and pushed into the gutter. there is 3 points where the lower control arm is bolted. the hardest point to get unstuck is where it bolts into the knuckle - it has a tapered shaft on ball joint. you need to pull the split pin out and undo the nut. then what you need is the biggest hammer you have and a centre punch. the tapered rod should have a divet in the middle, place the centre punch in this and belt the crap out of it. this will take time!!!!! dont at any point hit the rod with just the hammer you will ruin the thread. i hope this has been help!!

enjoy!

This thing is a bitch. I need to get my hands on a bigger hammer tomorrow and give it another go.

I was trying something like that but the bastard is not coming.

Cheers

can whack the side of it too, as the shaft is tapered it will come loose and slide out (dont take the nut all the way off)
