Yep, I work at Valvoline in Ballwin. Nope, thats kra95civic. I drive a Camry now.

You'd be better off trying to save your stock LCA's rather then using the BLOX ones. Those are no better then stock and the bushings are junk.

My suggestion is to buy a nice set of LCA's (Skunk2, Function7, PIC RR's, etc.) and all new LCA bolts. I think they're like $60 total for all 6 and about $200+ for decent LCA's. There is some other good info in this thread that I was previously refering to.

Sometimes rust is greater than 1000 ft lbs.

I've had 2 axle nuts frozen with rust on my car about 5 years ago. Half inch snap-on breaker bar broke. 1000 ft. lb. impact gun could not get it off.

So......like I said....sometimes rust > 1000 ft lb impact.

well yeah thats my car. how ever function 7 lca's are pricey but worth it Clayton (06sik20z3) has a set on his car and they are holding up very well to his build.

don't you guys know how to use lube? soak them fuckers down wait an hour and then they will come out easier.
