Message	Folks, I am in the middle of trying to install the Energy Suspension Master Kit (aka The Super Happy Fun kit), and I have hit a bump in the road. I can't drop my subframe because I can't seem to get the allen head bolts to budge on the driveshaft flange at the rear differential. I shot them up good with Liquid Wrench before calling it a day, other than that, any suggestions? I have the parking brake set, trans in 2nd gear, and have been using a breaker bar, but the bolts don't budge, the axle just ends up turning if I crank on it too hard. There's got to be a better/smarter way to do this, no? The MANtage....be a real man search said you suck (n/m) - Wilks. 01:38:02 09/06/06
