RE: [DML] Trailing Arm Bolt Removal

["Nick Kemp" <nkemp@xxxxxxxx>]

Dave,

I had the very same problem years ago and never did get the bolt out.  I
ended up writing an article for DW about it.

The bigger concern is that if you were to torque the nut on that trailing
arm, you could be perfectly torqued and still be loose at the frame end of
the bolt.  A dangerous situation.

I still hold by my original recommendation to grease the trailing arm bolts
to prevent corrosion.
