Civic LCA Bolt rusted and broke *HELP*

[srt-4life]

Ok guys i need some help on my lca I broke the bolt off that connects to the strut, and now the other one is rusted and about to break. i heard the bolts get really rusty and stick like glue to the lca. ive hammered, welded. and now im just gonna cut it off. if theres a shop that knows how to cutt or fix my lca lmk thanks would really help.

if your replacing the shock, you can cut off the legs of the strut, take off the LCA and then cut the remainder off. otherwise id say your doomed for a new arm

Well i got the whole shock off the only thing stuck is the bolt on the lca. idk if i should cut the lca bolt that connects to the back of the rotor.

wait, so it wasnt the shock that was rusted.. it was the one that bolts to the rear trailing assembly? whoa, your def doomed


you can try to take a small grinder, cut the inner welded nut off and then hammer the bolt out. then you can use a new bolt and nut to reinstall
