Re: Upper control arm cam bolts



This also has access panels for the front nuts. But the rear nuts are a bear, this is a max wedge and the exhaust and brake lines are different than normal. I can get a wrench on the nut but can’t really turn it. Even a ratchet box end won’t work. I can get a socket on the nut but not enough room for a 3/8” ratchet. Hate to pull the brake lines off. This is my first torsion bar experience, I have done many coil spring cars. Gotta be a trick!!!
