Just want to know whats the best way to keep bolts from breaking when taking them off say the suspension bolts. I sooo fuxed up . i broke like 4. What did i do wrong? I used a breaker bar the one off my hydrolic jack. the handle and i used penatrating oil and i still busted. I hate that sound know it give me the creeps. its like a klink!! !and iam like ahh shit. :o

next time use PB blaster, it really is the shit.
and try using impact instead of steady pressure to break the bolts loose, like putting on the breaker bar and hitting it with a mallet, instead of just yanking on it.
any body that breaks bolts going in is doing something very wrong, either cross threading them or not paying attention to torque specs.

PB Blaster and tapping usually works, if not, you might have to just break them to get them out, and replace them.

is there a trick to lining the bolts up cause it took me like 10mins to just liine up one side after i took off the arm that goes from the forks to this arm thing that holds the shocks and goes to the upper part of the car. yea the bolts i broke we ended up replacing but it was hard to find a replacmen at 12am. ANd the car needed to be out by the next day. pain in the butt. next time it will be done easy. thank you kind people for advise.
