Hi
I have an older 2007 h3 hummer and am redoing the control arm and ball joints and cv, everything is off except I can't get the upper control arm bolts off the bushing, tried tapping and penetex, do I need to jack up in a special spot to reduce pressure on those 2 bolts?
Every video I see they they detach the ball joint and then tap out and spin the 2 bolts with eas, mine just seem like they have pressure holding them in there
Thanks for any help in advance.

UCA bolts should come out with only a little tap. If you have new bolts, which you should, tap with a hammer. Make sure the shock is out.
