So i am taking a load of scrap in tomorrow and was going to try to save 3 swingarm bolts and a couple hubs. Guess what they are all on the frames and loaded up on the trailer to be junked. I don't know what it is with these dAM N swingarm bolts seizing up but a 20 pound sledge hammer wouldn't bust them out. my poor wrist and arms cant do it anymore so I quit. Out of the last 10 200x's I have parted I have only saved 1 or 2 of these suckers.

hey, drill a hole in the bottom, fill with atf. let it soak, put air to it. hammer on the big end before pressing out. this bolt cannot be turned in the frame.

Too late. Just not worth saving but that is a great idea. I will remember that though. Thanks

hey, retraction, these bolts can't turn!! they are slotted into the frame, so they will not turn.

Well I got one out yesterday. It didn't survive though because the center was too damaged from the punch i was using but at least it came out.
