CPP-Upper A arm Nut

The right side upper A arm nut to the rear will, or I should say cannot be removed without the removal of my Headman headers. It surprised me because I did not read about any one else having that problem. I even tried to push the A arm up real high and try to get the inside bolt to break lose . No luck. Be warned if you have headers the right side has to come off.

I have J&W nova header on my car and didn't have any problem getting the nut off. I just done it from the bottom. :D

Headmans must be a tighter fit there. I could not even get a wrench on the nut much less losen it. I wonder if someone else with headman headers has run into that problem?

I run the Hedmans and put on the CPP upper arms without issue. You have to struggle with an open-ended wrench and make sure the other nut on the UCA is already loose/off. You have to slowly work the arm shaft studs out as you lossen it. Its a little of a PIA but it can be done.

I snapped a pic before I removed it and wrote about the clearance in my upper arm write-up (see sig link)

Mine is much closer. not even a open end would fit. Even if I could get it off I don't see how I could get the new one in there. Anyway I just moved the header out of the way, didn't remove it. When I did get to the nut it was tighter than snot. I would have rounded it off if I would have gotten an open end on it anyway. Thanks for the pic.

I had to remove my header on the passenger side. I have Headman headers, the #4 tube was in the way.
