First thing I did on both sides but neither moved. Eventually beat the =
pins and nuts so badly that I took the nuts off and the threaded portion =
on one side was bent. Plenty of room to get penetrant in there.
=20
I eventually just took the whole assemblies off the car for better =
access but still no luck.
=20
Didn=E2=80=99t try heat yet, but if I do that I probably should then =
replace the otherwise-good kingpins.
