Default Control arms locked up.

Here are some pics of my control arm it is torqued to one side and will not budge. I loosened the nuts and bounced around of the jeep but it did not move at all any ideas?

I will assume you are talking about your drag link? Have you tried having someone get in and turn the steering wheel while you watch all of the steering components?

And what exactly were you trying to do when you noticed that the drag link doesn't move?

Or were you actually trying to loosen the Control Arms to make sure they were not bound up after a lift?
