Default A Rocker Arm Bolt Removal

Im working on putting the lift kit in on my G8 and I can't get the bolts out that attatch to the suspension arms in the front to save my life. I have probably spent an hour trying to get them off. I broke the head off bolt in the process. I have 1 out, and I am getting nowhere fast.

Any suggestions?

Do you have all the pressure off the front end?

I ended up cutting them off. Used a punch & a sledge hammer, that still wouldn't get them out. I am currently in the process of drulling them out.

I had the same problem with one bolt on my G16. I couldn't believe how frozen it was inside the bushing. I was putting a major beat down on it too, applied heat, and it still wouldn't budge. Ended up having to cut it off. It is still stuck in the a-arm bushing, but I'm replacing that with a lift kit so I didn't mess with it after.

You guys putting lifts on. Get some "Anti Seize" . Coat the bolt shanks with it as well as the king pins in reassembly! This will stop that from happening again. I use that stuff as a lube for just about everything i assemble.
