i jacked up my 88 hyundai excel coupe to service it and when i put it back on the ground the rear struts were siezed. i only left it hanging there for an hour or so. they worked fine before i jacked it up, so it must have just been the weight of the suspension hanging down. i have tried all amounts of heaving, jiggling, twisting etc and i cant get either of them unsiezed. any one have any ideas for unseizing them?

 

An 88 huh? Sounds like they're hosed. Why don't you just go out and get some new ones and put them in. I know it's not what you had planned, but it sounds like it was time to replace.
