What other kind IS there?
True. I meant it more as "Women, because they are fickle."
I thought you were using the word "fickle" loosely

My seized eccentric bolts may mean I need a new driver side rear lower control arm.

This ordeal is costing entirely too much.

This guy thinks they might have. They were just adjusted in March.

the guy that worked on it before must've over torqued it or something. Also another reason why I put anti-seize on everything, lol.

He said they can seize with the bushings inside the control arms, requiring them to be sawed off and new ones installed.

ugh...

They were. I was back there the whole time yesterday. One of the bushings would spin inside the toe arm (with the bolt) and the other didn't spin at all.
