Hi all. Just sitting here bored with a head full of flu....

Bentley shows the Strut Bar as a separate piece from the lower control arm.

This is regarding the older style front suspension.

How does one remove the strut bar from the lower control arm?

The nuts are off, but mine didn't budge when trying to remove them with suspension stiill in the van.

Is it common for them to be rusted on? Or ??

Not big whoop. I was just recalling that it puzzled me when I was removing the front suspension parts from my 85 parts van.

Thanks,

Neil.
