So the wife got hit in her beloved SL2 and I get to fix the mess.
The strut and the knuckle was bent.
We live in Minnesota and the 8" long lower bolt is rusted in place.
Ive heated, lubed ( acetone & AFT ) beat and swore at it, nothing helps.
The threads are now mushroomed and still stuck.

Is this bolt available anywhere?
Or just plain unobtainum

Thanks
Keith

 

 

I found them at Fastenal, I called the local store, they had nothing, but online had them.
ONLY $37 with shipping and tx LOL
At least they are the right grade ( 10.9 )

this thread helped by making me look online at fastenal again

I'd cut that sum beech out and do what Andy did. No point in busting knuckles and using every cuss word you've ever hear over one bolt.

 

I thought I replied to this...
I did cut it out and found a bolt at Fastenal for only $37
