Get a breaker bar or something to put over the end of the ratchet.

Leverage FTW.

hey what you can do is
tighten it
and then loosen it
give that a shot
and you tried all the bolts? or just one?

tried most of them.. mostly the ones that are from the struts.. not the oem bar.

hmm, i should go and get a can of pb blaster right now then.

so it'll eliminate the tension or rust from the bolts/screws immediately?

hmm, dont just spray and work. spray and let it sit there for a while to sink in there. i got megan too. :p and those bolts were also tight. what i did was put the part that goes on the suspension and put the screws in then tried loosening there and it worked for me. never push, pull.
