Well, was going to spend the day fitting a 3" lift kit to my ZJ.

Turns out that the track bar (anti-roll bar?) nut at the axle end has seized. Determination means that I've nicely rounded the bolt head too. According to the instructions, I need to remove this bolt to fit a new bracket (to cope with change in height).

Anybody got any ideas? Tempted to grind it down to something I can grip, then try again. Failing that, drilling it out and getting hold of a new flag nut and bolt.

Still, managed to fit the shocks at least which was the most urgent.

Cheers,

Andrew.
