Hey aLL, I've been on hear for a bit now reading, learning and help where I can even though I am still a noob w/ most cherokee stuff.
Now I'm stuck. I was replacing my leafsprings with the quadratec hd springs. I'm have some trouble with the driver front perch bolt. I was able to back it out to the point where the threads aren't in the subframe anymore, but the sleeve is rusted to it and I can't get it to come out any further. I torched it, tried splitting the sleeve open a bit which ended up breaking off the tip of my screwdriver( it's still in the sleeve0, tried placing a prybar behind the bolt head and turning it out. I don't know what to do. The other side was just as tough in the begining but once it got to this point it was a cake walk.
Any ideas? I'm getting very frustrated. :badpc:
I was thinking air chisel or angle grinder but my a/c is too small I think and the angle grinder seems problematic as well.
