Hi,
I'm trying to keep my 98 Breeze alive at almost 170K miles by replacing the subject. After fighting with this job for most of the most of the day yesterday I got all the bolts removed with the exception of the one as viewed from the driver's side wheel (leftmost corner protruding horizontal through the control arm (see attached picture)). I can't seem to get access to the nut on the backside of this bolt no matter what I try, at least not with the tools I own. I see that there is a small cut away in the body/frame for access to this nut but I still cant seem to get a wrench or socket in there to hold it.
Does anyone have any suggestions on tools to do this job or even what size this nut is? Thank you!
