deviant Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 Get some heat on it - hot air gun or blow torch. The alloy wheel will expand more than the steel bolt, and bob's your uncle. As you're having it powder coated you don't even have to worry about buggering up the paint if you do use a torch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobert23 Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 Get a shot of PlusGas penetrating/releasing fluid in there (if you can)... that normally does the trick for me. G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefatman Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 Drill the head off, then you can take the disc off and grab the remaining thread with a pair of mole grips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marb Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 Loctite also can't stand heat, so if someone was over generous with the loctite that will loosen too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
