Hello BITOG,
I'm planning on doing a bit of suspension work on my old '68 Polara. My sway bar bushings are shot. I can see all the hardware I would need to remove to get the old bushings out but I'm concerned about turning nuts & bolts that haven't moved most likely since the car was built. I currently have PB Blaster and WD-40 at home.
I'm also noticing what sounds like an exaust flange leak on the same car. I haven't determined if the exaust is leaking from the manifold gasket yet or the flange at the end of the manifold. Most likely the manifold to cylinder nuts haven't moved in 42 years either. Dual exaust system was installed probably about 15 years ago so it's been a while since the flange bolts have moved as well.
Any tips/tricks?
Thanks!
