Lower control arm and strut replacement
I have a 2007 ram 1500 4x4 in need of lower control arms and struts. I have the parts and I'm just waiting for a stretch of good weather. I have already replaced the upper control arms.
Issues I am contending with... Firstly the lower strut bolt is seized. Secondly the lower control arm bolts are also seized and the bushings are spinning. my plan is to cut the lower control arm bolts and remove the strut and control arms in one piece.
Is this possible? Is there an order of removal to make this easier? I haven't worked on suspensions for years so any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
