It helps if you weigh more the 87 pounds soaking wet with rocks in your pockets. Be a man rip those shits out.

Then again I think the lower control arms saw your haircut and said nah Fcuk that we don't wanna hang with him let's just stay with the rear. Get a haircut and go by the car, the arms will fall off on their own lol

It took me a long time to get the rear out of my car cause the bolts were siezed in the bushings. If you have the bolts out just pry and dont let it drop too far!
