I think I am regretting my spring selection

Soak in penetrating oil overnight and get a bigger impact/breaker bar.

When I changed my front stock sway bar links for the SPL's. The stock links was hard to break free. I put a wrench on the link stud and a big breaker bar with 6 point socket on the nut to loosen it.

My front passenger bolt was froze on mine. Beat the hell out of the bolt, soaked overnight with pb blaster and it wouldnt budge. I had to result to a bolt extractor and my neighbor let me borrow his air impact wrench. My 450 ft lb wouldnt get it done but his 900 ft lb made quick work or maybe it was loosened up. Good luck on this task. The nut was $2 at my local dealer.

I went 12k fr and 10k rr spring rate for my setup so curious to what you think once you test out your setup.
