Let me give you a word of confident. I got my broke free with the torch. It took me a few min with the mat pro gas. Spray it with penetrating oil as soon as it brought free. The torch Is a magic wrench if you are planning to work on rusty nut or bolt.
Unless you really want to replace it with the new one. Torch the hell out of it will break it free. By far it is the much easier method to get it working again. You really have nothing to lose. Here is the torch from amazon, Lowe’s or homedepot.
I am in the market for the ARB bumper from my 2003 LX 470. My question is, what is the different between the ARB combination bumper vs the ARB Deluxe Bull bar.
I had the same problem with the pin rusted shut. Use the mat pro gas and Torch the hell out of it. It finally broke free. Just remove or move the rubber dust boot off to the side as far as you can.
315/75R16. I only installed the 5mm spacer in the front to clear the UCA. It rubbed the back front inner fender. Nothing a torch can’t fix to melt and cut off the area that rubbed.
I haven’t got around to it. The ARB bumper is next. The lift upgrade and bigger tires install were all by coincident. My AHC failed so naturally it led me to replace it with the OME kit then the mud tires.
I installed a 1” spacer for the front only. When I turn from lock to lock. I do experienced running. I have to trim back the plastic wheel well inner cover fender cover for clearance.
