Ed,
I am where you are also...nothing but a flat washer left. I'm told that
heating it up will work....I've heated stubborn bolts then spritzed with PB
Blaster and had good luck but am hesitant to do so with the aluminum alloy
trailing arm....the guys in the club say that the heat won't affect the
trailing arm but I'm not going to try it...
