   Hey guys,
   
   Just a quicky.
   
   Trying to put a strut brace on but the strut upper mounting bolts won't move at all. I think they are rusted to be honest.
   
   Any ideas how to get them undone plus anyone know the size of them? Going to buy some new ones.
   
   Thanks in advance
   Paul

   soak with a releasing fluid for a day or so. Usually works its way in over time

   As above but try not to force them too much as it's a bitch to change the top mounts if you snap one
