Rusted front cradle for LSS
I have a 98 Olds LSS that needs a new steering rack. While loosening the front cradle, 2 of the 4 bolts where so rusted that they broke off inside the cradle. Is there a way to repair this or do I haul it to the junk yard?gp1

You can fix it but to better assist you i need some pics.Do you mean the bolts broke off in the body or the bushings fell apart?

IF they are the front two of the rear four you can accesses them thru a small hole in the front of that area on the body.If they are the rear most two you may have to pull your carpet and cut part of your floor to access them from the top.That is if a extractor or left handed drill bit dont work for ya
