Good luck
Thanks! The car is on jack stands and everything attaching to rear sub-assembly to the body of the car is detached except for the 4 large main bolts. Exhaust, brake and fuel lines are all out of the way. Can you show me a picture of the "inner control arm bolt"? There are several "links" attaching the wheel carrier to the sub-assembly. I'm not sure which on you are referring to. Thanks again!
