xtremerevolution Posted March 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 ok last year i had a 97 gp gt that had the same problem and i tried everything to free the sleeve from the bolt with no help. It was the front bolt that goes up from the bottom, i got the nut off and the torx head bolt just spun. I burned off all of the rubber and tried to open the sleeve, hold the sleeve with vicegrips, everything you could think of all the way down to going under the hood and pulling the airbox and beating the bolt which did nothing. Long story short i cut the bolt on the top side and bottom side with a cutoff wheel, tried like hell finding a replacement bolt which was impossible so i went to my local yard and got so lucky that i stripped 2 GPs of all of the control arm bolts lol. GOod luck to you. If you need a bolt i can sell you one with the nut if it will work for you Check my other thread. http://www.w-body.com/forum/index.php?topic=74935.0 Got the bolts shipped from online, grade 10.9 hardened steel. Turns out they were the wrong ones, but I did get grade 8.0 from a hardware store, which should be good enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
