Can't remove the rear toe adjustment bolt (eccentric)


Recommended Posts

I have a misalignment on the rear left wheel and the toe as to be adjusted, unfortunately the eccentric bolt is rusted inside the silent block of the toe arm and when I try to turn it left or right it return in the original position, I've tried everything to move it out but I really don't know what to do know, I'm stuck. The internal nut and the eccentric plate came off quite easily, I filled every parts with wd40.

update

I Will first try to weld something on the eccentric bolt and pull it out with a hammer extractor, second options would be to cut the toe arm inside the silent block socket, but for this option I'll need a joint ball remover tool and of course a new toe arm.

The car is not supported on the wheels to the floor may i hope, the wheels must be separate from the floor, otherwise it is indeed difficult if not impossible.
