Caster/camber and LCA bushings

[S4TA]

The rented c-clamp press didn't work for me, just bent the c-clamp open. Since I had the arm off anyway I just threw it in the 12 ton bottle jack press - It was all it could do with a ton of heat to get the lower ball joint to pop out. Looking back I should have just bought new Moog arms and been done same day instead of the 3 days it took me to mess around with rebuilding the old.

The mechanic I took it to ended up doing the same thing and said it was a PITA.

SPC, Moog or factory bolts?

any recommendations? I have new OEM LCA's...the back bolts both seem to be seized on the old LCA's.

I was going to replace all of them on the both fronts.

I bought the Moog grease-able bolts. I ended up finding them on Amazon under their used/damaged box section for $10 for one side. The other side I had to pay regular price, but still a lot less expensive than buying the OEM ones. A lot easier too since you have to piece together the OEM ones.
