Siezed drop link
 
Hi all

Went to replace drop links this morning, front right went fine but front left top is siezed, have nut off but that drop link does not want to come out!!

Anyone had any experience with these? any tips?

It's not seized...
 
... most likely it's being held by the swaybar's tension.
Use a jack to take off the pressure by lifting on the bottom end of the wheel carrier and you should be able to easily pull it out.
Happy Boxstering,
Pedro
