But if the bolt is siezed in the bushing, which it is on a good portion of Canadian cars that have seen a single winter with salt, this won't work, even with air tools. The LCA has to be cut off.
Not really ... remove the cam bolt that holds the LCA on the frame , just make sure to mark the cam and frame so you reinstall it with the cam in the same exact position . So far I have done work twice on the rear suspension and never had problems removing any of the bolts .
