Hi, back again. I'm trying to get the upper control arm off to replace, and the bolts are rusted on and snapped off the end on both of them. I have tried everything from soaking it to heat to hammering. What's the best way to get them out?

There are several methods of attack here depending on the situation. Can you shoot a quick video of the problem and upload it with your response? This would help me see what's going on so I can help you. We have a video of the job being done.
