After 2 hours I've called a truce between me and my 96 XK8 Coupe droplinks.
Both top and bottom bolts seem siezed. I've used penetrating fluid (now soaking, can nearby for regular topups) a breaker bar and an air gun.

Any suggestions?

Cheers.

The front ones you might be able to cut the rubber to get the link off around the bolt. That might get you a little more access to get penetrating oil on.

You could also try heat but very carefully.

Not a lot of space to work with, unfortunately.

 

Just a thought because I have never removed them. Is there a chance the bolts are reverse thread? God bless the Jag engineers, but ya just never know....

 

Had mine off recently, and the threads go the right direction, although they might well be whitworth.

 

Angle grinder with thin cutting disk did them fine for me.

 

Thanks all. Got them off with anger and an angle grinder.
