I know but the only reason I decided to take the other bolt was because I couldnt get a socket on the other one. Wo what you put the 13/16 on th enut head and the 21mm socket on the boly head? So then you turn the nut head and not the bolt head correct, I know stupid question, but I just dont wanna strip it, I am in the process of getting my hands on a 21mm wrench on friday. It is nice having guys who work in the shop! hahahahaha

Yah, Youra Douche!

haha we are all stupider for reading this, may god have mercy on your soul.

i just hold the nut with the 13/16 wrench, and loosen the 21 mm bolt head, trust me its not gonna be over tight, and the nut wont stip, you can try to find a wrench that fits really good for the nut but there really is no need. are you getting a 21mm wrench or socket?

So your saying if I turn the socket on the bolt head it will losen.

yea slight force to get the bolt moving then its cake. but you tried the inner bolt not the outer bolt, the inner bolt is the alignment bolt so its tighter due to the cam washer on it

Nah it will be done, I am far more mechanicaly inclined than you think. I have been working on cars since I was prolly 6 or 7 years old. I could pull the motor and replace if needed. I just haven thad the time to do shit the past few years due to my career change and working over 60 hours a week now. So when the weekend comes the last thing I want to do is lay under a car.

Wait what! I got the nut off the bolt near the middle of the car but when I hammered the bolt oout it hit the exhaust. So I just put it back in, now I will attempt taking out the inner bolt becasue this way is far easier than dropping the exhaust and everything else.

outer bolt bro, the bolt closest to the wheel, it holds the rotor/spindle to the lower control arm.
