My 24 mm bolts keep spinning with the bolt sleeve. Been 2 days struggling to screw these bolts. I can feel the thread on the bolt hole spinning with my finger putting it in. Any idea how can I screw these bolts? For reference these bolts joins the control arm to the bar.

I had the same issue on a 2006 Avalon 140,000 miles where the 14mm x 90 mm bolt goes thru the control arm end rubber bushing. I tried a Sawzall with good quality (Milwaukee) metal cutting blade and it did little more than make a slight groove in the bushing after several minutes and attempts at sawing through the bushing and bolt. I ended up using a Makita 4 inch angle grinder with a flat metal cutting disc to grind through the top and bottom area of the sleeve-bolt to be able to remove the control arm. It took some time to grind through and a couple of discs as the discs would wear down and lose the ability to reach fully through the bolt - sleeve. Guard was removed from grinder, gloves and a face shield are a must. Patience and Ear plugs definitely recommended. Rust on the control arm bolts make this job a miserable time consuming struggle and not one for the DIYer with minimal tools and experience! Perhaps the repair shops use a cutting torch to cut out the seized up bolt and sleeve and living with the burning rubber and smoke, but not something I was anxious to try before I tried the grinder cutting wheel operation.

Shop labor hours shows roughly 2 more hours for an 08 Avalon as compared to an 08 Camry. Have you ever done a (same year) Avalon and, if so, did it take 2 more hours & why?

Excellent video! Thank you very much Jose. Side note: I think torque specs are very important.
