So I'm trying to replace my front passenger side drop link, am I right in saying that the bolt that goes through the hub is not threaded? I've taken the nut off the end and as it's going in the bin I decided to tap it out with the hammer! Will it budge, no! Sprayed some penetrating oil on and left it!! I've broken the drop link off the other side so thinking next job get a long 17mm socket over the balljoint to the nut behind on a breaker bar and jiggle it a bit, then another tap?
