Default Rear traction (Toe) Arms - Install?

I got the Kinetix rear traction (toe) arms, and i have problems installing them. There is a bolt that goes into the car behind the fender which is very hard to reach and its nut is even harder to reach.



Does anyone have a DIY or install guide or any info that could help me install this? Thanks.

So i finally got them installed, turns out the nut for the toe arms does not come out, just the bolt. It takes some time, but its not as complicated as i first saw it.

The kinetix arms are A+ quality, they even come with polyurethane bushings, glad i got them installed.

I know I"m bumping a 2 year old thread, but Jose, how did you get the cone shaped bolt out? I've got my arms out, but that damn bolt doesn't want to come out. And I'm using a 24" breaker bar and an IR gun.

The bolt came right off mine, and btw those arms are not for adjusting toe, and will cause problems if you do.

Spc toe bolts
