Hi,

From everything I've read, to adjust the rear toe you just loosen the nut that holds the bolt and cam assembly in place, then turn the bolt head and let the cam push or pull the arm. I've got the nut loose, but for the life of me (big wrench and hammer) I can't get that bolt to turn or anything to move at all. I'm afraid if I put more force on it, the head will strip.

Is there some sort of groove or notch that holds the whole thing in place in addition to the locknut that I haven't found?

Thanks!

 

Your description is correct. Loosen the nut and then turn the head of the bolt. There is nothing else holding it in place.

More than likely, the bolt has seized inside the bushing of the toe link. Try loosening the nut to near the end of the bolt and get a punch on it to beat it out of the bushing. Once it is free of the bushing, you can put it back where it is supposed to be and adjust your toe.

When I have these types of things apart, I like to take the opportunity to grease them or coat them in anti-seize, so that stuff like this is less likely to happen again.

 

I beat it with as much force as I can get given the cramped area, also torched it a bit and quenched with wd40, and everything else I can think of, still no dice. Looks like I'm going to have to buy new bushing and bolts, then angle grind the damn things out of there?

 

I just did a rear bearing and dealt with this bolt as well..I cut both sides of the bushing down through the bolt and had to replace the bushings and bolt. The concentric bolt is M12x1.5x100. I found one at my local hardware store to get by until I get the right bolt from the dealer..Anti-seized the hell out of everything.

 

If you warm it up enough with a blowtorch, you could be able to knock it out with a *****/center punch and hammer. Worked for me.
