Hello all and thanks in advance

I am trying to replace the front OS Suspension arm
Having eventually got the lower nut off the bolt I can not remove the bolt.
It would appear that the sleeve is siezed in the bush
When trying to remove it simply will not budge

Anybody have any ideas?
It is the last job I have to do to put it through a re test and am somewhat stuck

Any advice would be appreciated

Thanks

Pete

try a 24hr soak with wd40 or duck oil on the sleve.
