I tried to install my BMR lca's today, but gave up. I jacked both sides up, put jack stands on the frames. I started with the driver side. I got the 1 bolt off at rear end, but the other bolt on the sfc, I couldn't get it budge. I sprayed wd40, let soak, but nothing. I just had surgery on my left wrist with a plate put in, so it's kinda hard for me anyway to be doing this. How much do you think it would cost to pay a shop to install my lca's?

I hope it's that cheap here. I would just like to do them myself, but my wrist won't let me, plus I don't want to risk rehurting it. i really shouldn't be doing anything with it yet.

I can tell you right now that the bolt at the front of the LCA (goes through the end of the SFC) is a royal pain in the butt ! I have pulled that bolt out a couple of times and it can be incredibly difficult. Usually it requires some pressure on the back side of the hex flange with a large blade screwdriver while you ratchet the bolt out of the hole. It generally will start to walk itself out. Hope that helps, but if I just had surgery on my wrist I think I would pay someone $20 or $30 bucks to do my LCA's. JMO
I just upgraded to the the EXTREME CM-LCA's (BMR)
Good luck

To the thread starter, it might cost more to drive, but if you come over to Salem I'll put them in for free.

Wierd, I pulled my stockers and installed BMR's, then put the stokers back on a few K miles later, I had NO problems at all, the nuts were a little tight, but they came off with a little effort?

Thank you Bersaglieri, I appreciate your offer. Too bad i'm not a little closer to you. I'll just take it to a few shops around here and see what they say. Thanks again.
