I have a socket that fits it, or you cant use a hex head bolt with jam nuts. I usually spray them down really good with wd40 first.

I think it's 17mm, just back the bolt out. I have about a 2" piece of allen wrench I cut off for that and the oil drain on the trans. Then just slide a socket or whatever you want over it.

hopefully the spacer in the bushing isn't rusted to the bolt. The bolt will thread out but if the spacer is froze you will have to chisel it off, not fun. soak it with penetrating oil of some sort, as long as you can. can't get bolt out of the trailing arm if the spacer won't let loose. Good luck
