1) Get the car on rino ramps.
2) Spray the torque arm down with liquid wrench or pb nut blaster
3) Use a flex pipe with 21mm socket and pipe and loosen the torque arm
4) Use an air gun to complete spin out the torque arm bolt
5) Spray down torque arm area with wd-40
6) Soak down the torque arm insert with wd-40
7) Start to insert the torque arm and push with hands and fingers as much as possible.
8) Use a floor jack to push the rest of the torque arm insert into the torque arm area.

I wonder if the recommended silicone spray would be better?
I know WD doesn't play nice with some types of rubber. It destroys motorcylce chain o-rings.
