R56 H-sport camber links seized?
H-sport camber links seized?
Hi,
I recently picked up a set of used camber links and for the life of me I can't figure out how to undo the jam nuts. I've wrenched on them pretty hard, tried some sprays of PB blaster, and tried a little bit of heat with a propane torch and I can't seem to get the nuts loose.
Has anyone experienced this or have any suggestions on getting these nuts loose?
Thanks in advance.

PB blaster is the best. I would also just be careful with the heat. On install, some people grease the threads with anti-seize just like the tie rods. So down the road it will have no issues.

What I would do is unbolt them(if on the car) and take them to a bench with a hug vice. Then get out the old school pipe or crescent wrench with like they used back in the day with a 12" plus handle. Try that after they soak overnight. Then get some old school made in America muscle and work it undone. Thats what I have done in the past.
