Default new user, need help with LR suspension

ok, lets see if i can describe this right lol.
i am replacing the whole LR suspension, and on the long bar/tube the goes to the front of the car, it has two bolts on either side of it and one bolt at the very front, does anyone know of anyway to get that bolt off with out using a wrench? i cant get my impact in there or a socket or anything else, just wondering if anyone has any other ideas/tips on getting it out. thanks

oh yeah, itsa 1989 CRX

kinda sounds like you got torsion bars. tho im not positive.
i highly sugest buying a manual for your car at your local parts store!

that tube i believe if it is a torsion bar setup is more less like a mount for the torsion bar inside. it MUST have the tension released or if ya try to remove that tube it will go physco and could really injure you! tho i could be wrong....

1989 CRX doesn't have torsion bars, it has basically the same rear suspension as all 1988-2000 Civics

Are you trying to get the trailing arm out? The part that looks like this and is about 2 feet long?
