I did a search, but the keywords bring up a ton of threads that would require hours of pouring over them. I also realize that this could go into the suspension forum as well. Here's my question:
The swingarm linkage pivot bolt on a 99 400F, what's the trick? This is the bolt that mounts the link to the frame just below the main pivot. I have the main pivot bolt out and I have the nut off of this linkage pivot bolt. It will even turn with a ratchet, but will not back out. I gave it a couple semi-forceful taps and also tried applying pressure to it while turning it CCW, no joy. Just wondering if I'm missing the obvious here. Thanks.
Just a note-I seem to remember someone else posting about this very same thing but it was a year or more ago. That's why I cancelled my "Needle in a haystack" search!
